The company also announced that it intended to add another 1 GW, which could take its overall operational capacity to 15.2 GW.

Robust Growth in Energy Sales and Five‑Year CAGR

This strong growth in operating capacity directly resulted in an increase of 28% in energy sales, totaling 27,969 million units against last year. Looking at a five-year horizon, Adani Green Energy pointed out a 45% Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) in power generation during the previous five years based on a growing share of merchant power and improvement in performance from its asset portfolio.

Strong Portfolio Performance: High CUF and Plant Availability
