The Vindhyachal Super Thermal Power Station was the highest-emitting physical asset in India in 2023, with estimated emissions of 26 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO₂e). The Vindhyachi STPS is the largest power plant in India, and one of the most polluting power plants worldwide. Combined, these 10 assets produced more than 200 MtCO₂e in 2023.
