Adani Green Energy calls for faster electrification amid rising global power demand
Sagar Adani said renewables with storage are needed to meet rising electricity demand and deliver reliable, low-carbon power, with more than $100 billion committed to the transition.
Adani Green Energy Limited hosted the inaugural Adani Green Energy Dialogue during London Climate Action Week at the Science Museum, bringing together leaders to examine strategies for accelerating electrification and strengthening energy security.
Earlier this week at the Annual General Meeting, Chairman Gautam Adani reaffirmed the Adani Group's commitment to India's energy needs, announcing plans to develop up to 10 GW of nuclear power capacity.
The Adani Group has committed more than US$100 billion towards energy transition, while Adani Green advances towards 50 GW of installed capacity by 2030, anchored by Khavda in Gujarat.
Addressing the international gathering, Adani said, "Electrification is emerging as one of the most effective pathways to address all three," citing energy security, affordability, and sustainability as defining challenges.
Participants including Lord Adair Turner and Nigel Topping discussed how Battery Energy Storage Systems and Pumped Storage Projects make clean power reliable, affordable, and available round the clock.
