Adani Group Unveils $100 Billion Plan for Renewable-Powered AI Data Centres by 2035
The Adani Group on Tuesday announced plans to invest $100 billion to develop renewable-energy-powered, hyperscale AI-ready data centres by 2035, describing the move as one of the world’s largest integrated energy and compute commitments aimed at positioning India as a global leader in the emerging Intelligence Revolution.
In an official statement, the company said the initiative will establish a long-term sovereign energy and compute platform designed to support artificial intelligence workloads and national digital infrastructure, while building hyperscale data centre infrastructure powered by renewable energy.
“The Adani Group today announced one of the world's largest integrated energy-compute commitments, a direct investment of $100 billion to develop renewable-energy-powered, hyperscale AI-ready data centres by 2035”.
According to the Group, the investment is expected to catalyse an additional $150 billion across server manufacturing, advanced electrical infrastructure, sovereign cloud platforms and supporting industries, creating a projected $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem in India over the decade.
“India will not be a mere consumer in the AI age. We will be the creators, the builders and the exporters of intelligence and we are proud to be able to participate in that future,” the Chairman added.

The performance state at its peak
How will Adani’s AI-ready data centre roadmap expand from 2 GW to 5 GW capacity?
The roadmap builds on AdaniConneX’s existing 2 GW national data centre platform and aims to expand toward a 5 GW target.
The expansion is anchored on partnerships with global technology firms including Google for establishing the nation’s largest gigawatt-scale AI data centre campus in Visakhapatnam, and with Microsoft for similar facilities in Hyderabad and Pune, along with additional campuses planned in Noida.
The Group said it is also in discussions with other major players seeking to establish large-scale campuses across the country.
The conglomerate is deepening collaboration with Flipkart by developing a second AI data centre to support high-performance computing, large-scale AI workloads and next-generation digital commerce.
The planned 5 GW deployment is expected to create the world’s largest integrated data centre platform, combining renewable power generation, transmission infrastructure and hyperscale AI computing in a unified, coordinated architecture optimised for high-density AI workloads through advanced cooling systems and efficient power infrastructure.
How will Adani’s AI data centres support Indian Large Language Models and national AI initiatives?
Dedicated compute capacity will also support Indian Large Language Models and national data initiatives, while providing high-performance computing resources for AI startups, research institutions and innovation ecosystems.
The company said the initiative aligns with national priorities and includes active participation across India’s five-layer AI architecture comprising Applications, Models, Chips, Energy and Data Centres.
Working with leading academic institutions, the Group will establish specialised AI Infrastructure Engineering curricula, applied AI research labs focused on energy and logistics, and a national fellowship programme to address the growing skills gap.
On the energy front, the Group highlighted the role of Adani Green Energy and its 30 GW Khavda project, with over 10 GW already operational, alongside a separate $55 billion commitment to expand its renewable energy portfolio, including large battery energy storage systems.
It also plans to invest in domestic manufacturing of critical infrastructure components such as transformers, power electronics, grid systems and thermal management solutions to strengthen supply chains and reduce dependence on global sources.
The Group’s flagship firm Adani Enterprises said the long-term commitment establishes one of the world’s most ambitious integrated renewable energy and AI infrastructure platforms at a national scale and invites global technology companies, sovereign institutions and innovation partners to collaborate in building India’s next-generation AI infrastructure platform.
