Gautam Adani’s Adani Group is planning to invest about $ 60 billion (about Rs 5.34 lakh crore) in electricity production, renewable energy and transmission-distribution in the next seven years (till FY 2032). The purpose of this investment is to fulfill India’s rapidly growing electricity demand and help the country self -sufficient in the energy sector.
There will be an investment of ₹ 1.85 lakh crore in renewable energy
Adani Group’s company Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) is focusing on renewable energy. The company has set a target to increase its renewable energy capacity from the current 14.2 GW (GW) to 50 GW by FY 2030.
For this, $ 21 billion (about 1.85 lakh crore rupees) will be invested. AGEL solar and winds make, run and maintain energy projects, which are largely connected to the grid.
Investment of ₹ 1.50 lakh crore in transmission-distribution
At the same time, Adani will invest $ 17 billion (about 1.50 lakh crore rupees) in Energy Solutions Limited (AESL), electricity transmission and distribution sector. The company’s target is to increase the current 19,200 km transmission lines to 30,000 km by FY 2030.
AESL not only works in power transmission and distribution, but also has its presence in sectors such as smart metering and cooling solutions.
The company will invest ₹ 1.94 lakh crore in thermal power
India’s largest private thermal power company Adani Power will invest $ 22 billion (about Rs 1.94 lakh crore) to increase its capacity from 17.6 gW to 41.9 GW by FY 2032.
The company’s business is spread over Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and Tamil Nadu. Apart from this, the company also has a 40 MW solar power project in Gujarat.
Electricity sector growing potential in India
The Adani Group says that India is one of the fastest growing power markets in the world. India’s Total Electricity Production Capacity is 475 GW in FY 2025, which is expected to reach 1,000 GW by 2032 with an annual growth rate of 11%. This sector has investment possibilities of more than $ 500 billion i.e. 44.08 lakh crore rupees.
Renewable Energy: India is ranked fourth in the world in renewable energy, where the current capacity is 172 GW. There is an investment potential of $ 300 billion (26.45 lakh crore rupees) to carry it to 571 GW by 2032.
Thermal power: The thermal power capacity will increase from 247 GW to 309 GW by 2032 in 2025. This will require 80 GW Additional Coal Based Capacity, with an investment of $ 91 billion (8.02 lakh crore rupees).
Adani Power says that coal will remain the basis of India’s power supply, which will play an important role in handling the growing demand and uncertainty of renewable energy.
Transmission Network: India’s transmission network is one of the largest grids in the world. In 2025, there is a plan to increase the 4,94,000 km network to 6,48,000 km by 2032, with investment possibilities of $ 110 billion, or Rs 9.69 lakh crore.
This major investment of Adani Group is an important step towards taking India’s power sector to new heights. Through investment in renewable energy, thermal power and transmission networks, the group will not only contribute to meeting India’s energy needs, but will also give the country a strong position in the global energy market.
