Last month also, the aluminium behemoth announced a series of green initiatives dedicated to preserving biodiversity across its operational regions in Odisha and Chhattisgarh.
Strategic expansion beyond initial scope
The original biodiversity project at Vedanta's Jharsuguda smelter has advanced into a complete sustainability framework. The company, producing over half of India’s aluminium – 2.42 million tonnes in FY25, has an enormous impact on the environment. With this partnership, it now targets three critical areas: a) achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050, b) water positivity by 2030, and c) maintaining no net loss of biodiversity.
