Adani Green Energy (AGEL) has commissioned a cumulative 3.37 GWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at Khavda, Gujarat, making it the world’s largest single-location battery storage deployment outside China.

The company said the project was completed within 10 months of on-site construction commencement, making it one of the fastest utility-scale battery storage deployments globally. The latest commissioning includes 1.37 GWh capacity added in March 2026, taking AGEL’s total operational BESS capacity at Khavda to 3.37 GWh.

The battery storage system is expected to strengthen grid reliability, support peak-hour electricity demand, and enable round-the-clock renewable energy supply at scale. AGEL plans to add more than 10 GWh of battery storage capacity in FY27 and scale it up to 50 GWh over the next five years.

According to the company, the 3.37 GWh BESS can store enough clean energy to power nearly one million homes for a full day and support peak electricity demand in cities such as Indore and Chandigarh, or the entire state of Goa.

The project integrates advanced energy management systems with lithium-ion battery technologies to improve efficiency, reliability, and grid responsiveness. It has been strategically developed at AGEL’s Khavda renewable energy park, where the company is developing 30 GW renewable capacity by 2029, of which 9.9 GW is already operational.

Commenting on the development, Sagar Adani said large-scale energy storage will play a critical role in India’s clean energy transition by enabling reliable, flexible, and dispatchable renewable power systems.
