Union Power Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia has emphasised over an urgent solution on fuel woes to generate an additional 14,000 mw of electricity. Over $21 billion worth of power plants have stalled due to natural gas shortfall, Scindia said. Besides seeking untied gas currently produced or likely to be produced in future by companies like State-owned ONGC and GSPC, Scindia wants fertiliser plants to spare some gas after fulfilling the requirement for producing urea.
