Adani Group has announced its entry into the Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) sector with a landmark 1,126 MW / 3,530 MWh project — India’s largest and among the world’s biggest single-location energy storage installations. The project, comprising over 700 BESS containers, will be commissioned by March 2026 and will extend the power capacity of 1,126 MW by approximately three hours, marking a major step forward in India’s clean energy transition.
Located at Khavda, home to the world’s largest renewable energy plant, the project is in advanced stages of deployment and will utilize cutting-edge lithium-ion battery technology integrated with advanced energy management systems to ensure high reliability and performance. The BESS will play a key role in managing peak loads, reducing grid congestion, and minimizing renewable energy curtailment, strengthening India’s power infrastructure and grid stability.
Gautam Adani, Chairman of Adani Group, said, “Energy storage is the cornerstone of a renewable-powered future. With this historic project, we are not only setting global benchmarks but also reinforcing our commitment to India’s energy independence and sustainability. This initiative will enable us to deliver reliable, clean, and affordable energy solutions at scale.”
This milestone initiative underscores Adani Group’s commitment to accelerating India’s low-carbon transition. By enabling round-the-clock renewable power and supporting large-scale integration of clean energy, the project positions Khavda as the world’s largest renewable and storage hub — a cornerstone of global efforts toward sustainable, reliable, and resilient energy systems.
