In a joint statement released by Jeong-woo, Choi, and the CEO of Posco
Said, “This cooperation will be a good and sustainable business cooperation model between India and South Korea.” In India POSCO has a reasonably good presence in India with POSCO-Maharashtra, a 1.8-million-ton cold-rolled and galvanized mill and four processing centres in Pune, Delhi, Chennai, and Ahmedabad. Five years ago, POSCO has lost $12 billion steel project in Odisha. The steel plant had to be scrapped due to legal delays and local opposition. During that time POSCO was keen to set up a greenfield plant in India, as it communicated its interest to set up a steel plant on Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) land in Visakhapatnam and a non-binding MoU was signed between POSCO and RINL in October 2019. At present Adani Group has announced an investment plan to become the world’s largest renewable energy company and produce green hydrogen in the future.
