Background
Lloyds Metals & Energy Ltd. (LMEL) was incorporated in 1977 as a steel manufacturing company. In 1994 LMEL commissioned the 1st part of the Ghugus Unit (Unit 1) and began our production, with an annual capacity of 150 thousand metric tonnes.[1] LMEL began operations of the Konsari steel plant in 2023 with an annual production capacity of 72 thousand metric tonnes per annum (ttpa).[2]
In 2021, the company proposed expansion of Iron Ore Beneficiation from 63 ttpa to 2,00,000TPA, Sponge Iron capacity to 459 ttpa by installing additional 2X100 TPD and 2X500 TPD), Captive Power Plant (WHRB) (4 MW to 22 MW and New 15 MW AFBC).[3] The company also plans addition of steelmaking capacity of 3000 ttpa using basic oxygen furnace route to be commissioned by 2030.[4][5]
