Adani has established itself as one of the key players in India’s economic landscape, contributing significantly to the nation’s growth. The group’s international presence spans countries such as Australia, Indonesia, and the UAE.

During the World Economic Forum held in Davos, the group, in the esteemed presence of Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani, entered into four Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs). The signing ceremony marked a pivotal moment as the entities expressed their dedication to fostering economic collaboration and growth.

Adani Enterprises, the conglomerate’s premier entity, has announced a substantial investment of Rs 5,000 crore in the establishment of a cutting-edge 100 MW data center. Notably, this state-of-the-art facility is poised to operate exclusively on environmentally friendly green energy sources, aligning with the conglomerate’s commitment to sustainable practices.

Adani Green Energy Ltd, the conglomerate’s arm for renewable energy ventures, is also set to channel an equivalent investment of Rs 5,000 crore into the development of two pump storage projects. These initiatives underscore Adani’s strategic focus on advancing renewable energy solutions and furthering its contributions to the sustainable energy landscape. The expansive nature of these projects underscores Adani Group’s strategic vision and its dedication to contributing to Telangana’s economic growth across various sectors.

Ambuja Cements, a key entity within the conglomerate, has committed a substantial investment of Rs 1,400 crore towards the establishment of a state-of-the-art cement plant with an annual production capacity of 6 million tonnes. Simultaneously, Adani Defence and Aerospace, another strategic arm of the conglomerate, is poised to inject an additional Rs 1,000 crore into the development of cutting-edge facilities dedicated to countering the threats posed by drones and missiles.

At the World Economic Forum 2024, a significant milestone was achieved as the Government of Telangana and the Adani portfolio of companies, a global giant in the realm of infrastructure conglomerates, collaboratively inked four Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs). These agreements signify a substantial investment exceeding Rs 12,400 crore, showcasing a robust commitment to fostering economic growth and development.

The Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) forged are set to lay the groundwork for the economic expansion of Telangana, fostering a paradigm that is not only green and sustainable but also inclusive and transformative. Adani Enterprises Ltd (AEL) has committed to the establishment of a cutting-edge 100 MW data center, slated for completion within the next 5-7 years, with a distinctive focus on utilizing renewable energy sources.
