Sagar Adani, Executive Director, Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), today called for faster electrification to strengthen energy security and support economic growth, saying renewables integrated with storage will be critical to delivering reliable, affordable and round-the-clock clean power.
Sagar Adani was speaking at the inaugural Adani Green Energy Dialogue, hosted by Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) in partnership with the Energy Transitions Commission (ETC) at the Science Museum, London, during London Climate Action Week. The dialogue brought together policymakers, investors, business leaders and climate experts to discuss the policy, investment and infrastructure needed to accelerate the clean energy transition.
Addressing the gathering, Sagar Adani said: “Energy security, affordability and sustainability are among the defining challenges of our time. Electrification is emerging as one of the most effective pathways to address all three. For countries seeking resilient growth and greater energy independence, accelerating electrification is no longer an option but an imperative.”
He added: “Renewable energy reaches its full potential when paired with storage technologies such as Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and Pumped Storage Projects (PSPs). They make clean power reliable, affordable and available round the clock. At Adani Green, we are bringing this vision to life as we advance towards 50 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, led by the world’s largest renewable energy plant at Khavda, Gujarat, where clean energy is being integrated with large-scale storage.”
Held during London Climate Action Week, one of the world’s largest independent climate events, the dialogue reflected the growing importance of international collaboration in advancing climate action, encouraging policy innovation and mobilising investment for the energy transition.
The Adani Group has committed more than US$100 billion towards the energy transition and related infrastructure, one of the world’s largest private-sector commitments of its kind. Alongside renewable energy, the Group continues to invest in transmission, energy storage, green hydrogen, digital infrastructure and next-generation industrial ecosystems to support the transition to a low-carbon economy.
Earlier this week, at the Adani Group’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), Chairman Gautam Adani reaffirmed the conglomerate’s commitment to meeting India’s growing energy needs through a diversified energy portfolio spanning renewable energy, green hydrogen, energy storage, transmission, digital infrastructure and nuclear energy. He also announced plans to develop up to 10 GW of nuclear power capacity as part of the Group’s diversified energy portfolio, with nuclear complementing renewables and storage to deliver reliable, affordable and low-carbon electricity at scale.
