Project Commissioning: Fresh Solar Capacity in Khavda, Gujarat
AGEL announced the operationalization of 87.5 MW of solar power projects at Khavda, Gujarat, on September 8, 2025, after receiving necessary clearances a day earlier. The new capacity includes two projects owned by subsidiaries: Adani Renewable Energy Forty-Five Limited (75 MW) and Adani Renewable Energy Fifty-Six Limited (12.5 MW).
These projects add to the rapidly expanding renewable cluster at Khavda, an area chosen for its strong solar resources and strategic location for power evacuation.
This follows the commissioning of a 125 MW solar power plant at Khavda on September 1, 2025, by Adani Renewable Energy Fifty-Six Limited.
Together, these recent projects propel AGEL past significant milestones, bringing its operational renewable energy generation capacity to 16,078 MW as of September 8, 2025.
Strategic Impact and Location Advantage
Khavda, situated in Gujarat’s Kutch district, is rapidly emerging as a global hub for renewable energy investments. AGEL’s projects here form part of its vision to build one of the largest renewable energy clusters globally, with a planned capacity of 30 GW in the region alone.
The area’s high solar irradiation, favourable government policies, and infrastructure for grid connectivity make Khavda a prime location for large-scale solar power generation. AGEL capitalizes on these geographic and policy advantages to ensure efficient project development and reliable energy supply.
Expansion Milestones: AGEL’s Growth Story
The operationalization of these new projects highlights a series of milestones for AGEL throughout 2025:
- On August 8, 2025: Commissioned a 50 MW solar-wind hybrid plant, raising total capacity to 15,865.5 MW.
- September 1, 2025: Brought 125 MW solar online, boosting the total to nearly 16,000 MW.
- On September 8, 2025: Added 87.5 MW of solar capacity, crossing the 16,078 MW mark.
Contribution to India’s Renewable Targets
India has set ambitious clean energy objectives—aiming for 500 GW non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. AGEL’s steady capacity additions bring the nation closer to this milestone, making significant contributions to India’s global climate commitments and national energy security.
The recently commissioned plants are estimated to power hundreds of thousands of homes and offset millions of tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually. AGEL’s portfolio, comprising primarily solar and hybrid capacities, aligns with the government’s backing of grid-integrated renewables.
Financial Performance and Industry Recognition
AGEL reported robust financial outcomes with a consolidated net profit of INR 824 crore for Q1 FY 2025-26—a 31% year-on-year rise—and total revenue of INR 4,006 crore. These results underscore the economic viability of renewable projects, with substantial returns credited to scaling up and improved efficiency.
Industry observers note AGEL’s leadership in India’s transition to green energy, often highlighting the company’s execution capacity and its central role in the nation’s clean energy policy implementation.
Future Roadmap and Commitments
Looking forward, AGEL aims to push its operational capacity to 45 GW by 2030 and to consolidate Khavda as the world’s largest contiguous renewable park (30 GW). The company continues investing in wind, solar, and hybrid technologies, alongside advanced R&D in areas such as hydrogen and battery storage.
In alignment with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals, AGEL adopts sustainable project management, prioritizing reduced carbon footprints, biodiversity preservation at project sites, and community engagement. This holistic approach has brought AGEL credibility and recognition in domestic and international markets.
Conclusion
The commissioning of new solar projects by Adani Green Energy in September 2025 sets a new standard for renewable energy development in India. By increasing its total operational capacity to 16,078 MW, AGEL directly supports national energy goals, environmental sustainability, and technological innovation. Its ongoing investments and strategic vision promise further leaps in India’s journey towards a greener, more secure energy future.
