The facility has been extended under JBIC's initiative entitled 'Global action for Reconciling Economic growth and Environment preservation' (GREEN) for projects which ensure the conservation of the global environment. The loan proceeds shall be utilized by NTPC for funding part of its capex requirements for Flue Gas Desulphurization (FGD) which substantially reduces the SOx emission in the flue gases of thermal power stations and is a positive step towards environmental sustainability.
