Adani Green Energy is commissioning the world’s largest hybrid wind-solar power plant with a capacity of 600 MW.

An ambitious project

Adani Green Energy makes the world’s largest hybrid power plant operational. It combines solar and wind energy. The Indian company chose to install it in Jaisalmer in the province of Rajasthan.

The plant enters into power purchase agreements (PPA) with SECI at Rs 2.69/kwh for 25 years. The hybrid power plant has state-of-the-art technology. It will produce 600 MW of solar energy and about 150 MW of wind energy.

Adani Green Energy’s total operational renewable capacity now increases to 6.7 GW. Bifacial photovoltaic modules, which are technologically superior, capture solar energy. The plant adopts HSAT (Horizontal Single-Axis Tracker) technology to capture maximum energy from the sun.

The continuation of a great project

The world’s largest hybrid power plant will have the ability to reduce the intermittency of renewable energy. It will also help the nation to make optimal use of the transmission network. In addition, in May, Adani Green Energy commissioned India’s first hybrid power plant with a capacity of 390 MW.

With this second 600 MW plant, Adani Green Energy now has a total operational generation capacity of approximately 6.7 GW. It also has approximately 1 GW of operational hybrid power generation capacity.

This brings Adani Green Energy’s total renewable energy portfolio to approximately 20.4 GW. The Indian company is on track to reach its goal of 45 GW of capacity by 2030. Thus, the firm continues to develop its portfolio.

Climate ambitions

Adani Green Energy is part of the Indian Adani Group. The group has one of the world’s largest renewable energy portfolios, with a global total of 20.4 GW. This portfolio includes assets in operation, under construction and allocated to quality counterparties.

The company develops, builds, owns, operates and upgrades solar, wind and hybrid power plants connected to its grid. The company’s major customers include Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) and National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC). Several state discoms also use the Indian company.

Adani Green Energy is a $46 billion market capitalization company. The company goes public in 2018. Finally, it is helping India to achieve its COP21 goals.
