Adani Green Energy targets 50 GW by 2030, Khavda park at 30 GW
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Adani Green Energy is aligning all its capacity expansion plans with a target of achieving 50 GW of renewable energy by 2030, Executive Director Sagar Adani said on Wednesday, 29 April 2026, on the sidelines of the Resilient Futures Summit 2026 in New Delhi. The company's installed renewable capacity currently stands at around 20 GW, meaning it must more than double its footprint in under five years.
The 50 GW Roadmap
Sagar Adani told media that every incremental capacity addition is being planned in direct alignment with the 2030 long-term goal. He noted that Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani has committed an investment of $100 billion towards India's energy transition — reportedly one of the largest such pledges by any private sector company globally. The company is also investing in transmission networks, thermal power plants, and other domestic energy sources alongside its renewables push.
World's Largest Single-Location Renewable Energy Park
Central to the expansion strategy is the Khavda Renewable Energy Park in north Gujarat, which Adani Green Energy describes as the world's largest single-location renewable energy park currently under development. The park is planned to have a capacity of 30 GW and will span 538 square kilometres — nearly five times the size of the Paris metropolitan area, according to Sagar Adani. This single project alone would account for 60% of the company's 2030 target, making its timely execution critical to the overall roadmap.
Government Policy and India's Record Capacity Addition
Sagar Adani credited strong government policy support for enabling India to achieve a record 55 GW of renewable energy capacity addition last year. Speaking at the summit earlier in the day, he described India's policy environment as offering "clear, consistent and increasingly execution-oriented" direction. "From accelerating infrastructure development, to expanding renewable capacity, strengthening transmission networks, and enabling long-term investments — there has been both clarity of intent and continuity of action. And that continuity is a critical enabler of resilience," he said.
Strait of Hormuz and Energy Security
Responding to a question on the Strait of Hormuz — a critical global oil transit chokepoint — Sagar Adani acknowledged that the situation remains a global concern. He added, however, that the Indian government has managed it effectively without passing the burden on to citizens. The remark underscores the broader energy security dimension of India's renewable push: reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels is a strategic as much as a climate imperative.
What's Next
With 30 GW still to be added before 2030 and the Khavda park still under development, execution pace and grid integration will be closely watched by investors and policymakers alike. The $100 billion commitment from the Adani Group signals long-term intent, but the gap between current installed capacity and the 50 GW goal leaves little room for delays in the years ahead.
