Adani Green Energy becomes the first company in India to reach 10,000 MW of renewable energy capacity, with the commissioning of a 2,000 MW solar project in Gujarat.
New Delhi, Apr 3 (PTI) Adani Green Energy Ltd on Wednesday said it has commissioned 2,000 MW of solar capacity at the giant Khavda solar park in Gujarat that has made it the first company in India with over 10,000 MW of renewable energy capacity.

The firm is aiming for 45 GW renewable energy by 2030.
AGEL's 10,934 MW operational portfolio will power more than 5.8 million homes and avoid about 21 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually, the statement said.
"We are proud to be India's first das hazari in the renewables space," said Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group.
