NTPC has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Hazipur-based East Central Railway Zone for transportation of fly ash under Indian Railways' Special Freight Train Operator (SFTO) scheme. Shri KK Singh, regional executive director, Northern Region, NTPC, signed the MoU on behalf of NTPC.
According to the company statement, NTPC has become the first entity in the country to sign an SFTO agreement with Indian Railways. 'At NTPC, sustainable ash utilisation is one of the key focus areas for us as part of our commitment to safeguarding the environment.
