Avaada Group, a diversified energy conglomerate, today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Gujarat to invest INR 36,000 crore across solar, wind and battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in the State. The MoU was signed at the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2025.
Under the agreement, Avaada Group will establish 5 GW of solar power projects, 1 GW wind power project and 5 GWh of BESS projects across Kutch, Banaskantha and Surendranagar districts of Gujarat. These integrated renewable energy plus storage projects will help enhance grid reliability by ensuring efficient storage and dispatch of green power. All the projects are expected to commence between 2027 and 2030.
The projects together are estimated to generate over 1,000 direct and 2,000 indirect green jobs in the State. Additionally, these are expected to generate employment opportunities for close to 5,000 people during the construction phase.
The projects will accelerate the State’s transition to clean and affordable energy by delivering firm green power beyond solar hours through advanced battery storage. The integrated renewable portfolio will help offset more than 12 million tons of CO₂ emissions and conserve approximately 166 million litres of water annually through robotic module cleaning technology.
Avaada Group’s 280 MW solar power project at Surendranagar in Gujarat was recently inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Developed under the Gujarat State Solar Policy, the project spans over 1,170 acres in the villages of Tavi and Varsani in Surendranagar district and entails a total investment of INR 1,500 crore. It is equipped with Avaada Electro’s ALMM-certified TOPCon n-type bifacial solar PV modules.
The Prime Minister also laid the foundation stone for the company’s 100 MW solar power project in Vadodara district. Spread across 350 acres, the project will entail an estimated investment of INR 400 crore.
