KOLKATA: Reliance Industries entered the Global Top 10 club with a ranking of 8 in the 2016 Platts Top 250 Global Energy Company Rankings. As many as 15 Indian energy companies made the ranks against 14 last year and Adani Power emerged the fastest growing energy company in Asia-Pacific region. This propelled India's Reliance Industries to make it global Top 10 debut. Consumption rose nearly 5%, regaining its hare as the dominant fuel in the energy mix at 56%. Some 24 U.S. and Canadian firms have dropped out of the rankings, the biggest sectoral correction since the rankings began.
