Copper's Pivotal
Role in India

Infrastructure Development

India has been investing in infrastructure development projects such as transportation, networks, power plants, and more pan country. Copper is an essential building block in all of these projects.

Clean Energy & Electric Vehicles

With the goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2070, India's clean energy transition will focus on transforming mobility and power generation. By 2030, India aims to achieve 500 GW of renewable energy capacity and ensure that 30% of vehicle sales are electric vehicles. Copper is employed in various forms across these applications. It serves as wiring, connectors, and conductive components in electric vehicles. While, in solar and wind energy panels, it is used in wiring, photovoltaic cells, and electrical contacts due to its exceptional conductivity and durability.

Industrial Sector

Copper's properties make it indispensable in manufacturing processes and the production of goods. It serves as an essential material for electrical wiring, plumbing systems, heat exchangers, and various machinery components. That’s due to its excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance, and thermal properties. The NMCC aims to increase the manufacturing sector's contribution to GDP from 16% to 25% by 2025. Government initiatives like Make in India and the PLI scheme for copper tubes further advance this sector.

Building and Construction

As India`s population continues to grow, the demand for housing is simultaneously rising. Copper is essential in electrical wiring, plumbing, roofing, and other infrastructure development. Thus, its demand will rapidly increase.
