New Delhi, Dec 19
On Thursday, Gautam Adani, the Chairman of the Adani Group, said that the company makes promises that go beyond just building infrastructure. These promises are about bringing hope, progress, and a better future for millions of people in India.
He also reacted to a unique advertisement by the Adani Group on wind turbines and renewable energy, which became very popular online. Gautam Adani shared on X (formerly Twitter) that “the winds of change are here.”
“In our actions sit the promises we make. Promises that are not just about infrastructure but of hope, progress and a brighter tomorrow. The winds of change are here. Hum Karke Dikhate Hain!” said the Adani Group Chairman.
The 1.30-minute video, with the tagline “Pehle Pankha Aayega, Phir Bijli Aayegi” (First the fan will come, then the electricity), surprises viewers and shows how clean energy can brighten lives without harming the environment.
In this short but impactful video, the story of Tamtu, a young boy from a village, is shared. He and his father have been spending nights in the dark, hoping for electricity to come to their home.
To build a better future, in 2016, the Adani Group completed the 648 MW Kamuthi solar plant in Tamil Nadu, which was then the world’s largest single-site solar power project.
Today, the Adani Group is building another renewable energy plant in Khavda, western Gujarat. This plant is more than five times the size of Paris, and once completed, it will generate 30 GW of clean energy. It will become the world’s largest man-made power source, larger than thermal, nuclear, and even hydropower.
In the first half of FY25, Adani Green Energy expanded its operational capacity by an impressive 34% year-on-year, reaching 11,184 MW. This growth includes new projects, such as 2,000 MW of solar capacity and 250 MW of wind capacity in Khavda, 418 MW of solar capacity in Rajasthan, and 200 MW of wind capacity in Gujarat.
Adani Green is on track to meet its 2030 renewable energy (RE) capacity target of 50 GW, which will include at least 5 GW of energy storage.
