Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) isn’t just playing the renewable energy game; it’s rapidly rewriting the rules. The Indian giant just smashed through a colossal barrier. It now operates over 15,500 megawatts of clean power capacity nationwide. This milestone firmly cements AGEL’s dominance in India’s energy transition.
Reaching New Peak
AGEL recently energised 1,011.5 megawatts of new solar and wind projects. Because of this, its total operational capacity surged to 15,539.9 megawatts (15.5 GW) as of June 2025.
This massive portfolio powers 7.9 million Indian homes. AGEL contributed over 15% of India’s utility-scale solar installations last year. Furthermore, it provided 12% of the country’s total renewable capacity additions during that period.
World’s largest renewable energy plant
AGEL is constructing something truly extraordinary in Gujarat’s Khavda region. Work progresses relentlessly on what will become the world’s largest renewable energy plant.
This mega-project already boasts 5,355.9 megawatts of operational capacity. Ultimately, Khavda alone is slated to reach a staggering 30 gigawatts by 2029. The site spans a breathtaking 538 square kilometres.
Its sheer scale makes it visible from space. AGEL commissioned the first 5 gigawatts since the project commenced in April 2023. This project will create an estimated 15,200 green jobs upon completion.
Exponential Growth
AGEL’s ascent has been meteoric. Its renewable energy capacity grew at a stunning 42% compound annual rate over five years. This significantly outpaced India’s overall renewable growth of roughly 16%. How did they achieve this? Firstly, strategic acquisitions like the $3.5 billion SB Energy India buy in 2021 fuelled expansion.
Secondly, powerful partnerships provide crucial backing. TotalEnergies holds a significant minority stake. Additionally, Abu Dhabi’s IHC invested $2 billion in May 2022. Thirdly, innovative technology optimises performance.
