Adani Green Energy surpasses 12,000 MW renewable energy capacity

New Delhi/Ahmedabad, Feb 28 (UNI) Private renewable energy firm Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) on Friday said it has surpassed a record 12,000 megawatts (MW) of operational portfolio and has become the first and only renewable energy company in India to reach this landmark.
AGEL’s 12,258.1 MW portfolio consists of 8,347.5 MW solar, 1,651 MW wind and 2,259.6 MW wind-solar hybrid capacity, the company said in a statement.
The milestone underscores AGEL’s commitment to deliver 50,000 MW of clean, affordable and reliable power by 2030. The 12,258.1 MW operational portfolio will power more than 6.2 million homes and avoid about 22.64 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. The emissions avoided are equivalent to carbon sequestrated by 1,078 million trees.
Adani Green Energy’s 12,258.1 MW contribution to India is the largest greenfield expansion in India’s RE sector; represents about 10% of India’s installed utility-scale solar and wind capacity; and contributing over 13% of India’s utility-scale solar installations.
Adani Green Energy is developing the world’s largest renewable energy plant of 30,000 MW on the barren waste land at Khavda in Kutch, Gujarat. Built across 538 sq kms, it is five times the size of Paris and almost as large as Mumbai city.
Once complete, it will be the planet’s largest power plant across all energy sources. AGEL has operationalized cumulative capacity of 2,824.1 MW renewable energy at Khavda so far. The accelerated progress at Khavda underscores AGEL’s commitment to India’s goal of 500 GW non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030.
Work at Khavda continues at a fast pace, with AGEL leveraging the project execution capabilities of Adani Infra, the manufacturing expertise of Adani New Industries Limited, the operational excellence of Adani Infrastructure Management Services Ltd. and the robust supply chain of our strategic partners.
