Adani Green Energy Launches World's Largest Battery Storage System in Gujarat Adani Green Energy has inaugurated the world's largest single-location battery energy storage system (BESS) outside China, located in Khavda, Gujarat. The project, with a total capacity of 3.37 gigawatt-hours (GWh), marks a significant milestone for the renewable energy sector. The announcement has led to a 0.55% rise in the company's share price on the stock market, with shares trading at 1,418.80 rupees on the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The project's completion in just 10 months since on-site construction began sets a record for large-scale energy storage projects globally. The BESS system is designed to enhance grid stability and ensure uninterrupted power supply during peak demand periods. It can store enough clean energy to power approximately 1 million homes for a full day. Additionally, the system can support 12 million LED bulbs for 10 continuous hours. This advancement is expected to revolutionize the renewable energy sector by providing a reliable infrastructure for grid management. The project is part of Adani Green Energy's broader renewable energy initiative in Gujarat. The company is developing a 30 GW renewable energy plant on 538 square kilometers of land in Khavda, with 9.9 GW already operational. The new BESS system complements this effort, contributing to India's goal of achieving 50 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030. Adani Green Energy's executive director, Sagar Adani, emphasized the critical role of energy storage in India's transition to clean energy, stating that the sector's rapid growth necessitates robust storage infrastructure.
