Adani Green Commissions 3.37 GWh Battery Storage Facility For Clean Energy

Adani Green Energy has commissioned a cumulative 3.37 gigawatt-hour (GWh) battery energy storage system (BESS) at Khavda in Gujarat, marking what the company described as the world’s largest single-site battery storage deployment outside China. The project strengthens India’s renewable energy infrastructure and is expected to improve grid reliability, peak-hour power supply and round-the-clock clean energy delivery.

The company said the latest expansion includes 1.37 GWh of storage capacity commissioned in March 2026, taking the total operational battery storage capacity at the Khavda renewable energy site to 3.37 GWh. According to Adani Green Energy, the utility-scale project was completed within 10 months of the start of on-site construction, making it one of the fastest-executed large-scale battery storage deployments globally.

The battery storage system has been integrated with advanced energy management technologies and lithium-ion batteries to improve efficiency, flexibility and grid responsiveness. The company stated that the facility can store enough renewable energy to power nearly one million homes for an entire day. It can also support electricity demand equivalent to cities such as Indore, Chandigarh or Goa and keep more than 12 million LED bulbs running continuously for 10 hours.

Executive Director Sagar Adani said large-scale energy storage would play a critical role in India’s clean energy transition as renewable power generation expands rapidly across the country. He added that dependable storage infrastructure would be essential for ensuring stable and uninterrupted green power supply while supporting renewable-heavy electricity grids.

The Khavda project forms part of Adani Green Energy’s broader renewable energy expansion strategy. The company plans to add more than 10 GWh of battery storage capacity during FY27 and aims to scale this to 50 GWh over the next five years. The storage deployment is also expected to strengthen the company’s massive renewable energy park at Khavda, where it is developing 30 GW of renewable capacity by 2029.

Adani Green Energy said 9.9 GW of the planned 30 GW renewable capacity at Khavda is already operational. The company believes the integration of large-scale battery storage with renewable generation will help create more resilient, flexible and dispatchable energy systems while supporting India’s long-term clean energy and decarbonisation goals.
