Ahmedabad, 14 November 2025 – Two portfolio companies of Adani Group have received Letters of Award (LoA) from the Assam Government for two transformative projects in Assam: a state-of-the-art thermal power plant and a pioneering pumped storage facility, which would see them collectively invest Rs 63,000 crore in the state.
Adani Power Ltd. (APL) will invest Rs 48,000 crore to set up a 3,200 MW greenfield ultra-supercritical power plant in Assam. Separately, Adani Green Energy, India’s largest renewable energy company, intends to invest Rs 15,000 crore to set up two Pumped Storage Plants (PSP) in the state with a combined capacity of 2,700 MW.
AGEL has received an LoA for 500 MW of energy storage capacity, which will be catered from the above PSPs. These landmark initiatives underscore the Adani Group’s strategic focus on the advancement of India’s northeastern region, aligning with Chairman Gautam Adani’s pledge in February this year to invest Rs 50,000 crore in the region’s development and growth.
