ArcelorMIttal, which earlier this week submitted a bid to acquire Essar Steel, has said it exploring the possibility of establishing a 600 MW solar farm by utilizing the land in Karnataka originally allotted to it for a proposed $6.5 billion project to set up a 6 million tonne greenfield steel plant.

The company said its decision was prompted by "excess capacity of steel worldwide and uncertainty in iron ore availability locally." The world's largest steel company said it has sought permission from the state government on this and the proposal is under consideration and added that it hopes to get approval for the same.
