Union Minister Shri G. Kishan Reddy Releases Copper Vision Document to Strengthen India’s Clean Energy Infrastructure
04 JUL 2025 3:56PM by PIB Delhi
Union Minister for Coal and Mines Shri G. Kishan Reddy today released the Copper Vision Document at the International Conference on Sustainable and Responsible Mining through Best Mine Closure Practices, organised by the Indian National Committee of the World Mining Congress in Hyderabad.
Shri Reddy emphasised copper’s vital contribution to India’s energy transition, infrastructure growth, and green technologies such as electric vehicles and solar power. He stated that the Vision Document provides a long-term strategy to meet growing domestic demand while ensuring raw material security. The document was developed through wide-ranging consultations with key stakeholders including Hindustan Copper Ltd. (HCL), Hindalco Industries Ltd., Kutch Copper Ltd., Vedanta Ltd., Indo-Asia Copper Ltd., Lohum, along with industry associations like Indian Primary Copper Producers Association (IPCPA) and International Copper Association (ICA).
The Copper Vision Document anticipates a six fold increase in demand by 2047 and outlines plans to add 5 million tonnes per annum of smelting and refining capacity by 2030. It focuses on scaling up secondary refining, enhancing domestic recycling, and reducing dependence on open-market imports by securing overseas mineral assets through global partnerships.
Aligned with Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of a Viksit Bharat by 2047, the Copper Vision Document is a step forward in creating a sustainable, resilient, and future-ready copper ecosystem for the nation.
