Adani Green has energized a 3.37 GWh BESS at Khavda in Gujarat, where it is developing a 30 GW renewable energy plant
The utility-scale BESS deployment comprises 1.37 GWh commissioned in March this year
The company targets adding more than 10 GWh of BESS capacity at Khavda in FY27
Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) has commissioned a cumulative 3.37 GWh battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity at Khavda in Gujarat, calling it the world’s largest single-location battery storage deployment outside China.
AGEL says this deployment comprises the 1.37 GWh it commissioned in March 2026, which has now expanded to 3.37 GWh at Khavda, Gujarat. The company is developing a 30 GW renewable energy plant at Khavda. Of the total capacity targeted by 2029, 9.9 GW is currently operational on-site.
It is also among the fastest-executed utility-scale BESS deployments globally, the company adds, as it was delivered within 10 months of construction launch.
The 3.37 GWh BESS capacity is enough to store clean energy to power nearly 1 million homes for a day, supporting peak electricity demand equivalent to that of cities like Indore or Chandigarh, or the entire state of Goa. It is enough to power more than 12 million LED bulbs continuously for 10 hours.
The company plans to add more than 10 GWh of battery storage capacity at Khavda in FY27 and scale it to 50 GWh over the next 5 years (see Adani Green Targets 10 GWh Battery Storage By FY2027).
AGEL stresses the importance of utility-scale battery storage systems to ensure a stable, reliable clean power supply, regardless of weather, time, or location, while contributing to grid stability. According to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), India requires 411.4 GWh of energy storage capacity by 2032 – 175.18 GWh of pumped storage and 236.22 GWh of BESS – as the country targets 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030.
“With the commissioning of the 3.37 GWh BESS at Khavda, AGEL is strengthening the foundation for resilient, dispatchable and flexible energy systems. Our investments in battery storage reflect a long-term commitment to building future-ready clean energy infrastructure at global scale,” said AGEL Executive Director Sagar Adani.
