India's Coal Stock at Power Plants Reaches Record High

India's Coal Stock at Power Plants Reaches Record High

India's power plants now have a lot of coal!

They have a record amount stored, enough to keep the lights on for almost a month.

This is because of a special loading method called silo loading, where coal is loaded quickly and efficiently onto trains.

Government officials met to discuss how to keep coal moving smoothly.

They're also working on building more places to load coal this way.

This means more reliable power, even when it rains or during peak usage.
