Adani Power ramps up to meet record power demand
As India grapple with an intense heatwave, Adani Power, the country’s largest private thermal power generator, has ensured that its 12 plants are fully primed to support the peak demand.
TL;DRAI
Adani Power operated its 12 thermal plants at 77% PLF (vs. 65% national average) during India's record 272 GW peak demand, contributing ~17 GW to the grid with 96% plant availability. With a $22B capex program targeting 42 GW by 2031-32, Adani is positioning as the dominant private baseload provider as India plans 100 GW of additional thermal capacity to back renewable intermittency.
