Piyush Goyal, India's Union Mines Secretary, has shared his thoughts considering the need for timeliness in completing any expansion projects, pushing up the production targets and making structured improvements in the overall operational efficiency during a review of National Aluminium Company Ltd (NALCO)’s ongoing expansion programs and overall performance on Wednesday.
NALCO, a firm that is already a key player within the Indian bauxite mining, alumina refining and aluminium production sectors, is looking to increase its capacities to meet the growing domestic demand from sectors like electric vehicles, renewable energy and infrastructure projects.
