Steel Authority of India (SAIL) has plans to more than double the capacity of its Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) to around 9 million tonne per annum (MTPA) at an investment of Rs 30,000 crore, a move which will boost supplies to sectors like defence, oil & gas, automobiles among others. Post expansion, which will come up over an area of 1,200 acre, RSP will alone contribute around 25 per cent to SAIL's overall 35 MTPA production capacity target by 2030.
Located at Rourkela in Odisha, around 320 km from state capital Bhubaneswar, RSP holds the distinction of being the first public sector steel plant in India. It was set up in 1950s with German collaboration with an initial capacity of 1 MT.
At present, the total steelmaking capacity of SAIL stands at 20.30 MTPA of which RSP's contribution is 4.4 MTPA.
SAIL is India’s largest steel producing company. The company is among the five Maharatnas of the country’s Central Public Sector Enterprises. The company has five integrated steel plants, three special plants, and one subsidiary in different parts of the country.
