Context:
The Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) has issued another extension for thermal power plants (TPPs) to comply with Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) emission norms.
Background of the News:
• In December 2015, the MoEF&CC implemented India’s first emission norms for SO2, NOx and mercury control, acknowledging the significant impact of coal-fired power plants on pollution levels, both directly and through secondary particulate formation.
• The notification mandated the installation of SO2 control technologies, such as flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) systems, within two years, with compliance deadlines set for December 2017.
• Progress has been unsatisfactory, and subsequent extensions have only pushed deadlines further away.
• A notification in December 2024 announced that the deadlines for SO2 compliance for non-retiring TPPs (coal-based power plants that are not being retired or repurposed before 2030) were revised again.
