Adani Green Operationalizes 551 MW Solar Capacity At Khavda Adani Green Operationalizes 1 GW Of 30,000 MW Khavda RE Park

Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), a renewable energy (RE) company and a solar PV developer, has recently operationalized 551 MW solar capacity in Khavda, Gujarat, to supplying power to the national grid.

AGEL achieved this target within 12 months from the commencing work on the Khavda RE park. It started with the development of basic infrastructure, including roads and connectivity, and creating a self-sustaining social ecosystem. AGEL also transformed the barren terrain of the Rann of Kutch into a habitable environment for its 8,000-strong workforce.

AGEL plans to develop 30 GW of renewable energy capacity at this RE park. The planned capacity is expected to be operationalized in the next five years. AGEL claims, “When completed, the Khavda RE park will be the largest renewable energy installation in the world. Energy from the Khavda RE park can power 16.1 million homes each year. With proven expertise in developing largescale renewable projects, a robust supply chain network and technological prowess. The region is endowed with one of the best wind and solar resources in the country, which makes it ideal for giga-scale RE development. AGEL conducted studies and deployed multiple innovative solutions to accelerate the development of the plant.

The 30 GW RE plant is expected to annual contribute 81 billion units of clean electricity to be generated, 16.1 million households to be powered 15,200+ green job creation 58 million tons of CO2 emissions is expected to be avoided. 

Emissions avoided is equivalent to carbon sequestrated by 2,761 million trees, 60,300 tons of coal avoided and 12.6 million cars off the roads. Energy from the Khavda RE park can power 16.1 million homes each year. With proven expertise in developing largescale renewable projects, a robust supply chain network and technological prowess, AGEL is best positioned to build this record-setting giga scale plant with no parallel in the world’s clean energy sector.

The region is endowed with one of the best wind and solar resources in the country, which makes it ideal for giga-scale RE development. AGEL conducted extensive studies and deployed multiple innovative solutions to accelerate the development of the plant. process, it is supporting the development of an indigenous and sustainable supply chain.

“Adani Green Energy is creating one of the world’s most extensive renewable energy ecosystems for solar and wind,” said Gautam Adani, Chairman, Adani Group. “Through bold and innovative projects like the Khavda RE plant, AGEL continues to set higher global benchmarks and rewrite the world’s planning and execution standards for giga-scale renewable energy projects. This milestone is a validation of the Adani Group’s commitment and leading role in accelerating India’s equitable clean energy transition journey towards
its ambitious goals of 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030 and carbon neutrality.”
