JSW to invest PLN 1.5 bln in coke segment by 2030

WSE-listed coal producer JSW will invest some PLN 1.5 billion on replacements and development investments in its coke plants by 2030, according to its CEO. “We need to conduct the necessary modernization and development investments in coking coal production segment in order to meet the rising quality and environmental protection requirements of its clients,” acting CEO Daniel Ozon said. JSW wants to modernize coke batteries and improve the quality of coke. It is also considering the production of new, marketed products like carbon adsorbents, used to remove impurities in the manufacturing process. Last year, JSW produced about 4.1 million metric tons of coking coal.
