Adani Energy Solutions Ltd. (AESL) ramped up its green energy infrastructure and transmission capabilities over the year, strengthening its role in India’s transition to renewable power. The company said its project pipeline doubled to Rs 60,000 crore from Rs 30,000 crore during the period.
The company expanded its transmission network to 26,705 circuit kilometres and increased its transformation capacity to 97,236 mega volt ampere to meet the rising demand from renewable energy projects.
During the year, AESL won its largest private-sector renewable energy transmission project — the Rs 25,000 crore Bhadla–Fatehpur High Voltage Direct Current corridor — designed to carry 6,000 MW of renewable power from Rajasthan. With commissioned and under-construction assets combined, the company now commands a 28 per cent share of the national transmission market.
Beyond transmission, AESL is advancing the digitalisation of electricity consumption through smart metering. It has installed 74 lakh smart meters so far and plans to cross the one-crore mark by March 2026. The meters support real-time monitoring and demand management, which are critical for grids with a high share of solar and wind power.
The company is currently deploying around 25,000–27,000 smart meters each day as it seeks to secure a substantial share of India’s smart metering market.
Its distribution subsidiary, Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd., continued to be ranked among the top utilities while cutting technical losses to 4.36 per cent. Nearly 45 per cent of its power supply comes from renewable sources, with a target to raise this share to 70 per cent by 2030. The company is also exploring opportunities to expand its distribution footprint to areas such as Navi Mumbai, Mundra and Greater Noida.
AESL is additionally investing in low-carbon cooling solutions to curb energy use in large buildings. A district cooling project underway in Mundra is expected to consume 30 per cent less energy than conventional cooling systems.
The company is also supporting energy-intensive industries, including textiles and cement, in shifting to cleaner power. These initiatives align with its wider sustainability goals, which include eliminating single-use plastics at its facilities and ensuring zero waste is sent to landfills.
