Adani Group has announced an investment of $100 billion to develop renewable-energy-powered, hyperscale AI-ready data centre capacity in India by 2035. The Group expects the investment to catalyse by 2035 an additional $150 billion across server manufacturing, advanced electrical infrastructure, sovereign cloud platforms and supporting industries. Together, this is projected to create a $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem in India over the decade.
“The world is entering an Intelligence Revolution more profound than any previous Industrial Revolution,” said Gautam Adani, chairman of the Adani Group. “Nations that master the symmetry between energy and compute will shape the next decade. India is uniquely positioned to lead. At Adani, we are building on our foundation in data centres and green energy to expand into the complete five-layer AI stack focused on India’s technological sovereignty.”
This roadmap builds on AdaniConnex’s existing 2 GW national data centre and targets 5 GW, positioning India at the epicentre of the global AI economy. Adani Group has partnered with Google to establish the nation’s largest gigawatt-scale AI data centre campus in Visakhapatnam, alongside additional campuses in Noida, and with Microsoft spanning Hyderabad and Pune. It is also in discussion with other major players seeking to establish large-scale campuses across India.
The world’s largest integrated data centre platform
Adani said the 5 GW deployment will create the world’s largest integrated data centre platform, combining renewable power generation, transmission infrastructure and hyperscale AI compute within a single coordinated architecture. Unlike conventional data centre expansions, the program is designed as a unified energy-and-compute ecosystem, where generation, grid resilience and high-density processing capacity are developed in parallel.
Reliable transmission networks and advanced grid systems will underpin the platform, ensuring stability, scalability and uptime at hyperscale.
The energy-intensive AI workloads will be powered by competitively priced renewable power power from Adani Green Energy’s 30 GW Khavda project, of which over 10 GW is already operational. In addition, the Group is committed to investing another $55 billion to expand its renewable energy portfolio, which will include one of the world’s largest battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Strategic connectivity through cable landing stations, including at Adani’s network of ports, will ensure low-latency global integration with the Americas, Europe, Africa and Asia.
To reduce exposure to global supply-chain volatility, the Adani Group will also co-invest in domestic manufacturing partnerships of critical infrastructure components, including high-capacity transformers, advanced power electronics, grid systems, inverters and industrial thermal management solutions.
