Japanese ambassador expressed gratitude for the commitment shown by Adani to enhance the partnership between Japan and India.

Yesterday, Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani posted on the social media platform X to convey his insights following his meeting with Japanese Ambassador Hiroshi Suzuki.

“Had a very engaging discussion with Amb Hiroshi Suzuki of Japan. We are grateful for his visit to our Mundra Port and to Khavda where we are building the world’s largest Hybrid Renewable Energy Park of 30 GW capacity. The Ambassador’s appreciation for India’s culture, the value he places on our partnership and his tremendous support for India are truly inspiring,” Mr Adani said in his post on X.

 The coal-to-port company is building the world’s largest Hybrid Renewable Energy Park with 30 GW capacity.

The project is being developed by Adani Green Energy Limited. It will be the largest power plant on the earth after its completion. It covers an area of 538 sq km on arid ground in Khavda, Kutch, Gujarat, the company claims.

Its area is nearly as big as Mumbai and five times larger than Paris. On February 14, 2024, 551 MW of solar energy was transferred from the project to the national grid for the first time. Adani Green Energy Limited will invest roughly Rs 1.5 lakh crore for the project.

The visit by Ambassador Suzuki to the Khavda project site and the Mundra Port demonstrates Japan’s interest in and support for India’s renewable energy industry.

Japan has been actively funding infrastructure projects in the country, among them the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Project (IV), The Dhubri-Phulbari bridge, Phulbari-Goeragre section of NH 127B, Chennai Peripheral Ring Road, and Dedicated Freight Corridor Project are some of the major projects.

“The ambassador’s appreciation for India’s culture, the value he places on our partnership and his tremendous support for India are truly inspiring,” Gautam Adani added.

The world’s largest renewable energy project at Khavda in Kutch is built across 538 sq km and is five times the size of Paris and almost as large as Mumbai city.

AGEL has surpassed 10,000 megawatts (MW) of operational portfolio, delivering reliable, affordable, and clean power to the national grid that will power more than 5.8 million homes and help avoid about 21 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.

Meanwhile, with cargo volumes of 180 MMT (more than 16 per cent YoY growth) in FY24, the flagship Mundra port is well placed to cross the 200 MMT mark in FY25. Mundra Port, the flagship of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ), has just created yet another record by welcoming the largest container ship ever to call at an Indian port.
