New Delhi: Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) on Wednesday said it added over 5 GW renewable energy capacity in fiscal 2025-26, taking its total operational portfolio to 19.3 gigawatts.

It is the highest greenfield annual capacity expansion globally by any company, excluding China, a statement said.

The new capacity addition includes 3.4 GW of solar, 0.7 GW (686 MW) of wind and 1 GW of wind-solar hybrid capacity.


The capacity addition is expected to offset around 10 million tonne of carbon emissions annually. The total operational portfolio of 19.3 GW will result in an annual carbon offset of 36 million tonne, it stated.

"This milestone strengthens our progress towards our target of 50 GW by 2030, while continuing to deliver sustainable and inclusive growth through renewables and energy storage solutions." said Sagar Adani, Executive Director, AGEL.

Further, the company also brought online an initial 1,376 megawatt hours (MWh) of battery energy storage systems (BESS) at Khavda, one of the world's largest single-location deployments.

The capacity was commissioned within eight months of starting work at the site, supporting grid stability and renewable integration, it stated.
