Operational Update

Adani Green Energy Limited through its various stepdown subsidiaries has commercially operationalized:

  • 481.9 MW renewable energy projects at Khavda and Mundra, Gujarat
  • 3,081 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects at Khavda, Gujarat

The decision to commercially operationalize these plants was taken at 10:35 p.m. on October 01, 2026 based on relevant clearances.

Capacity Milestones

With this commissioning, AGEL has achieved:

  • Total operational renewable generation capacity: 20,762.70 MW
  • Total operational BESS capacity: 6,632 MWh

Project Details

Annexure A - Renewable Energy Projects (481.9 MW total):

  • Adani Renewable Energy Fifty Seven Limited: 343.3 MW Solar project
  • Adani Wind Energy Kutch Three Limited: 138.6 MW Wind project

Annexure B - BESS Projects (3,081 MWh total):

  • Adani Renewable Energy Thirty Five Limited: 642 MWh BESS
  • Adani Green Energy Twenty Seven C Limited: 1,355 MWh BESS
  • Adani Green Energy Twenty Seven B Limited: 1,084 MWh BESS

Strategic Significance

The 6.63 GWh BESS capacity at Khavda, Gujarat represents:

  • World's largest single-location battery energy storage system
  • More than 50% of India's operational BESS capacity of about 12.6 GWh
  • Capacity equivalent to battery storage of more than 150,000 mid-sized EVs (40kWh battery pack)
  • Enough energy storage to power around two million homes daily
  • Capacity to meet almost twice the Delhi Metro's estimated daily electricity requirement
  • Can support peak electricity demand of cities like Nagpur, Patna or Vizag for several hours

Project Execution Timeline

  • 6.63 GWh milestone achieved within 14 months of commencing on-site BESS construction
  • Latest capacity addition commissioned in just 10 months from start of construction

Future Targets

AGEL is:

  • On track to add over 10 GWh of BESS capacity in FY 2026–27 (FY27)
  • Targeting 50 GWh of storage capacity over the next five years
  • Also pursuing pumped storage projects (PSPs) as part of broader strategy

Technology and Integration

  • BESS uses lithium-ion battery technology
  • Integrated with Energy Management Systems (EMS) and automated telemetry
  • Supports grid stability, peak demand management, and reduces energy curtailment
  • Integrated with AGEL's 30 GW RE plant development at Khavda across 538 square kilometers
