Adani Green Adds Record 5.1 GW Capacity, EBITDA Climbs 23% To ₹10,865 Crore

Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), the largest and fastest-growing pure play renewable energy (RE) company in India, has released its financial performance for the year ending on 31 March 2026.

  • Strong revenue and EBITDA growth are primarily backed by robust greenfield capacity addition of 5.1 GW in FY26, deployment of advanced RE technologies, strong plant performance and commissioning of new capacities in resource rich sites in Khavda, Gujarat and Rajasthan.
  • Installed BESS (battery storage) capacity of 1,376 MWh in Khavda, one of the largest single-location deployments globally. Targeting more than 10,000 MWh capacity by FY27.

Sagar Adani, Executive Director, Adani Green Energy, stated: “FY26 was a landmark year in Adani Green’s history. The company on the back of robust project and operational excellence, commissioned 5.1 GW of greenfield capacity, thereby reaching 19.3 GW of total operational capacity. It is the highest greenfield annual capacity expansion globally by any company (outside China). This milestone not only consolidates our leadership position in India’s renewable energy sector but also puts us in a different orbit of execution excellence. Our flagship Khavda project, the world’s largest renewable energy plant, continues to make significant progress. On the battery storage side, we installed 1.4 GWh of capacity in FY26, which is one of the world’s largest single-location BESS deployment and will complement our contract mix to take us closer to building a resilient and future-ready energy ecosystem. Our Pumped Hydro Storage Project (PSP) in Andhra Pradesh is also progressing well.
AGEL’s 19,294 MW of operational portfolio will power more than 8.7 million homes and avoid about 36 million tonnes of CO2e emissions annually. The continued recognition of our ESG efforts reaffirms our commitment to sustainable growth and accelerating India’s energy transition.”

Capacity Addition & Operational Performance – FY26:

  • Project Development Excellence: AGEL has consistently expanded its greenfield capacities backed by advanced resource planning, engineering, and supply chain management, with project management, execution and assurance from our partner, Adani Infra India Ltd (AIIL).
  • Operational Capacity: Expanded by a robust 35% YoY to 19.3 GW, putting us on track to achieve 50 GW target.

AGEL added 5,051 MW greenfield capacity in FY26, which is 1.5 times the capacity addition in FY25. The greenfield additions of 5,051 MW included 3,412 MW of solar capacity (2,974 MW in Khavda, Gujarat, 438 MW in Rajasthan); 683 MW wind capacity in Khavda and 956 MW of solar-wind hybrid capacity in Khavda.

  • Energy Sales: Increased by 34% YoY on the back of strong operational performance

  • Operational Excellence: AGEL’s operations and maintenance (O&M) leverage sophisticated data analytics, enhanced by machine learning and artificial intelligence, in collaboration with our O&M partners, Adani Infra Management Services Pvt Ltd (AIMSL).
  • Exceeding Commitments: AGEL has consistently generated electricity exceeding the overall annual commitment under the power purchase agreements (PPA). In FY26, AGEL’s PPA based electricity generation was 106% of the annual commitment.

  • O&M Efficiency: AGEL’s O&M is driven by advanced technology with Energy Network Operation Center enabling real time monitoring of the renewable plants across the country. This has not only enabled consistent higher plant availability in turn resulting in higher electricity generation but also led to reduction in O&M cost resulting in industry-leading EBITDA margin of 91%.

Development of the World’s Largest RE Plant at Khavda:

  • World’s largest power plant: AGEL is steadily progressing in the development of the massive 30 GW renewable energy plant at Khavda in Gujarat. This is spread over an area of 538 sq km, almost 5 times the city of Paris. This project will set a global benchmark for the development of ultra large-scale renewable energy plants.
  • Rapid execution: Now, the operational portfolio at Khavda stands at 9.4 GW3 solar, wind and hybrid capacity. With robust manpower deployment, localized supply chain and advanced technologies like robotic solar module installation, AGEL is on track to achieve 30 GW RE capacity in Khavda by 2029 setting a global benchmark for the speed of execution at such a large scale.

  • Most advanced renewable technologies deployed: The plant deploys the most advanced bifacial solar modules and trackers to maximize electricity generation. It also deploys India’s largest 5.2 MW wind turbine, which is also one of the most powerful onshore wind turbines globally. The deployment of waterless robotic cleaning in the entire plant, not only leads to near zero usage of water for module cleaning but also increases electricity generation.
