“Deeply inspired by Bhutan’s vibrant spirit and steadfast commitment to eco-friendly initiatives. We are excited about doing our part to foster collaboration with the Land of the Thunder Dragon for a sustainable and greener future,” Gautam Adani added.
Adani Green Energy Limited is developing a 30 GW renewable energy plant on barren land at Khavda in Kutch, Gujarat, covering an area of 538 sq km, making it the planet’s largest power plant once completed.
Adani Green Energy Limited will invest approximately Rs 1.5 lakh crore in the project.
Last week, US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti also visited the mega renewable energy project sites at Khavda and Mundra Port.
At COP26 held in 2021, India committed to an ambitious five-part “Panchamrit” pledge, which includes reaching 500 GW of non-fossil electricity capacity, generating half of all energy requirements from renewables, and reducing emissions by 1 billion tonnes by 2030. India also aims to reduce the emissions intensity of GDP by 45 per cent and achieve net-zero emissions by 2070.
