Key Takeaways
  • Adani Group plans to invest $100 billion in renewable energy-powered, hyperscale AI data centers in India by 2035 

  • It has also committed to invest $55 billion to grow its renewable energy portfolio 

  • It expects the $100 billion investment to mobilize another $150 billion to create a $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem  

  • The strategy is anchored by Adani Green Energy’s 30 GW Khavda renewable project, with over 10 GW already operational, stated the group 

In an announcement, India’s Adani Group committed $100 billion as direct investment to develop renewable energy-powered hyperscale AI-ready data centers in the country by 2035. Separately, it also plans to invest $55 billion to expand its renewable energy portfolio. 

This $100 billion, it says, will mobilize an additional $150 billion across server manufacturing, advanced electrical infrastructure, sovereign cloud platforms, and supporting industries. Together, it will create an AI infrastructure ecosystem worth $250 billion in the country, estimates the group.  

AdaniConnex, an Adani Group company, is developing 2 GW of national data center capacity with plans to expand it to 5 GW, building on its partnerships with Google and Microsoft to power their data centers with green energy. The group is also exploring more such collaborations for large-scale data centers. 

“Central to this strategy is Adani Green Energy’s 30 GW Khavda project, of which over 10 GW is already operational,” highlights the management. The renewables investment will also help build what it says will be one of the world’s battery energy storage systems (BESS).  

It says the future facilities will be designed for large high-density compute clusters and next-generation AI workloads backed by advanced liquid-cooling systems and high-efficiency power architecture. 

“At Adani, we are building on our foundation in data centres and green energy to expand into the complete five-layer AI stack focused on India's technological sovereignty,” said Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani. “India will not be a mere consumer in the AI age. We will be the creators, the builders and the exporters of intelligence and we are proud to be able to participate in that future.” 

Through its green energy arm Adani Green Energy Limited, the group aims to expand its operational capacity to 50 GW by FY30, a 29% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over 17.2 GW as of 9M FY26.
