In a short span of time, Adani Green Energy has become India’s largest solar generation company. Its journey began in 2012 with a modest yet the largest-of-its-time solar power plant of 40MWp using thin film technology at Bitta in Kutch, Gujarat.
Its most recent and stellar achievement is the world’s largest solar power plant of 648MW AC at Kamuthi in Tamil Nadu, India. Recently Adani Green through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mahoba Solar (UP) Private Limited won tenders for setting up 300 MW solar generation projects.
With these tender wins, Adani Green now has a portfolio of renewable generation capacity of 3.45 GW with 1.96 GW operational projects and balance 1.49 GW in development stage.
The company has targeted to build 10,000 MW power generation capacity by 2022. Indian government has a strong focus on using renewable energy sources and wants to achieve its aim of 175 GW of renewable energy by 2022. We are recommending a Buy on Adani Green.
