Adani Green Starts Generating at World’s Largest Planned Renewables Park
Adani Green Energy Limited has started supplying power to the Indian grid from 551 MW of solar capacity in Khavda, Gujarat. The company achieved this milestone within 12 months of commencing work on the Khavda renewables park, starting with the development of basic infrastructure, including roads and connectivity. It 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 the site. The planned capacity is expected to be operationalized within the next five years. When completed, the Khavda renewables park will be the largest renewable energy installation in the world.
The 30 GW Khavda renewables park is expected to generate 81 billion units of clean electricity and power 16.1 million homes each year, helping to annually offset 58 million tons of CO2 emissions.
