Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) has reached 15,539.9 MW of installed renewable energy capacity—the largest by any company in India. The developer added 5 GW of clean energy capacity in just 15 months after reaching 10 GW, marking the fastest capacity addition.
AGEL’s operational portfolio spans 12 Indian states, comprising 11,005.5 MW solar, 1,977.8 MW wind and 2,556.6 MW wind-solar hybrid capacity. This represents over 15% of India’s utility-scale solar installations and 12% of the total utility-scale solar and wind capacity.
AGEL is the first and only renewable energy company in India to cross the 15 GW mark—achieved primarily through greenfield development. Notably, its entire operational portfolio is certified as water-positive, underlining its commitment to sustainable development.
“Inspired by Mr Gautam Adani’s ambition to position Adani as the global leader in renewable energy, AGEL is committed to setting new benchmarks in innovation and operational excellence,” said Ashish Khanna, CEO, AGEL. “We aim to accelerate even faster from 15 GW to 50 GW by 2030, remaining steadfast in our mission to power India and the world with sustainable energy solutions.”
AGEL’s operational capacity can power around 7.9 million homes and is enough to power the entire northeast region of India.
AGEL is developing the world’s largest renewable energy plant of 30 GW on the barren waste land at Khavda in Kutch, Gujarat. Built across 538 sq km, it is five times the size of Paris and will be even visible from space. Once complete, it will be the planet’s largest power plant across all energy sources. AGEL has operationalized cumulative capacity of 5,355.9 MW renewable energy at Khavda so far.
AGEL develops, owns, and operates utility scale grid-connected solar, wind, hybrid and energy storage solutions. It targets to achieve 50 GW of installed RE capaxity by 2030 aligned to India’s decarbonization goals. AGEL is focused on leveraging technology to reduce the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) in pursuit of enabling largescale adoption of affordable clean energy.
