PRAKASH (Power Rail Koyla Availability through Supply Harmony) Portal
PRAKASH is a newly launched portal (on October, 2019) by government for better coordination among the ministries of power, coal and Indian Railways for coal supply to power plants.
The Portal is designed to help in mapping and monitoring entire coal supply chain for power plants, viz - coal stock at supply end (mines), coal quantities/rakes planned, coal quantity in transit and coal availability at power generating station etc.
Benefits of Portal to the Stakeholders
Coal Companies will be able to track stocks and the coal requirement at power stations for effective production planning.
