Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), a titan in the renewable energy sector, has eclipsed the 10,000-megawatt mark in its operational portfolio, solidifying its position as India’s largest renewable energy firm. With an impressive tally of 10,934 MW, AGEL has achieved a significant milestone in the industry, showcasing a robust amalgamation of solar, wind, and hybrid capacities that underscore the nation’s shift towards sustainable energy solutions.
At the heart of this achievement lies the expansive 2,000 MW solar capacity in Khavda, playing a pivotal role in propelling AGEL past the 10,000 MW threshold. The company’s recent addition of 2,848 MW in renewable capacity during the financial year 2024 underscores its relentless pursuit of growth and sustainability in the energy sector.
The sheer scale of AGEL’s operational portfolio is a clear indicator of its impact on the renewable energy landscape. Powering over 5.8 million homes and offsetting around 21 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually, AGEL is not just contributing to India’s green energy objectives but also setting a global benchmark in the renewable energy sector.
AGEL’s journey, under the stewardship of Mr. Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, reflects a vision transformed into reality. Starting from the ground up, the company has soared to remarkable heights, with its installed capacity touching the 10,000 MW mark in less than a decade. This rapid growth is not only a testament to the company’s commitment to clean energy but also signifies the scale and speed at which it operates to foster India’s clean energy transition.
The planned expansion to reach a 45,000 MW capacity by 2030, including the establishment of the world’s largest renewable energy project in Khavda, epitomizes AGEL’s ambitious roadmap. The project, boasting an anticipated capacity of 30,000 MW, exemplifies the company’s pioneering spirit and its role in redefining global renewable energy standards.
Beyond its operational achievements, AGEL is dedicated to fostering sustainable practices across its ventures. The company’s operations align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, focusing on affordable and clean energy, economic growth, and sustainable industrial, innovation, and infrastructure development. AGEL’s certification as ‘single-use plastic free’, ‘zero waste-to-landfill’, and ‘water positive’ for its larger plants further reflects its commitment to environmental stewardship.
AGEL’s influence extends beyond the national boundaries, setting a precedent for giga-scale renewable energy development. From inaugurating the world’s largest single-location renewable energy plant in 2016 to developing the largest hybrid renewable energy cluster in 2023, AGEL continues to lead with groundbreaking projects that chart the course for the industry’s future.
In Gujarat’s Kutch district, AGEL is crafting the blueprint for the world’s most extensive renewable energy project on barren land in Khavda. This mammoth initiative, spread over 538 square kilometers, is a clear demonstration of AGEL’s execution prowess, leveraging the synergies within the Adani conglomerate and its strategic partnerships.
AGEL’s narrative is one of relentless progress and visionary leadership in the renewable energy domain. With an operating portfolio that speaks volumes of its scale and commitment, AGEL is not merely advancing India’s green energy trajectory but is also crafting a sustainable future for the global community.
