The foundation stone for India's first port-based e-methanol plant was laid, signalling the commencement of the project.
Officials gathered at the site to lay the foundation stone for what is described as India's first port-based e-methanol plant. The facility is intended to produce e-methanol, a fuel synthesized using renewable electricity and captured carbon dioxide. Observers say the plant will contribute to the country's clean energy goals and could stimulate economic activity in the surrounding region.
