Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) has granted approval for initiating the bidding process for setting up a 325 km natural gas pipeline from Jammu to Srinagar on 27 December, 2023
The proposed natural gas pipeline is a key initiative to expand clean energy infrastructure in these regions. This project seeks to introduce the use of gas and contribute to the sustainable development of the Kashmir Valley
As part of the broader effort to promote the use of natural gas, this project complements the ongoing development of the natural gas pipeline from Gurudaspur to Jammu. It is a significant move to deliver this environmental fuel in a cost-effective manner across the mountain region of the Union Territory (UT) of Jammu and Srinagar
the pipeline will facilitate the supply of clean and environmentally friendly natural gas to the Kashmir Valley. Also, it aligns with the national commitment to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable development. The availability of natural gas will stimulate economic activities in the region, providing a cleaner and more efficient energy source for industries, businesses, and households
The bidding round for the award of a licence to distribute natural gas in Srinagar Valley is currently underway and the bids are expected to be received by mid-January 2024
