Adani Green Energy Surpasses 20 GW of Renewable Energy Capacity

Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) has announced it has surpassed 20 gigawatts (GW) of operational renewable energy capacity, becoming the first renewable energy company in India to achieve the milestone predominantly through greenfield development.

The Adani Group company generates over 52 billion units of clean electricity annually, and the output represents nearly 3 per cent of India's electricity consumption, according to a statement.

“Surpassing 20 GW demonstrates what disciplined execution and long-term vision can achieve. Today, AGEL, along with our efficient team and longstanding partners, delivers renewable electricity almost equivalent to the annual power requirement of Mumbai and New Delhi combined, reinforcing the country's energy security while accelerating its clean energy transition,” said Sagar Adani, Executive Director, AGEL.

The feat comes within a decade of commissioning AGEL’s first renewable energy project at Kamuthi, Tamil Nadu, in 2016, making it India's largest and fastest greenfield renewable energy capacity addition.

The company added 5,051 megawatts (MW) in FY26, the highest annual renewable capacity addition by any company outside China.

AGEL's operational portfolio comprises about 14.2 GW of solar, 2.7 GW of wind, and 3.3 GW of wind-solar hybrid capacity.

Additionally, AGEL has commissioned 3.55 GWh of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), the world's largest deployment outside China.
