In a monumental move poised to redefine India’s position in the global tech landscape, the Adani Group has unveiled plans to invest a staggering $100 billion directly by 2035. This ambitious initiative focuses on building hyperscale, AI-ready data centers powered entirely by renewable energy, marking one of the world’s largest integrated energy and compute projects.
The announcement, made in Ahmedabad, aims to create a sovereign energy and compute platform that will propel India to the forefront of the emerging ‘intelligence revolution.’ Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, emphasized that this revolution will surpass the impact of previous industrial eras. ‘Nations that master the balance of energy and compute will shape the next decade,’ he stated, highlighting India’s unique strategic position.
Beyond the initial outlay, the project is expected to attract an additional $150 billion in investments across server manufacturing, advanced power infrastructure, sovereign cloud platforms, and supporting industries. This could culminate in a $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem in India over the next decade.
Leveraging its existing AdaniConneX network of 2 gigawatts, the group plans to expand to 5 gigawatts. Key highlights include India’s largest gigawatt-scale AI data center campus in Visakhapatnam with Google, additional facilities in Noida, and partnerships with Microsoft in Hyderabad and Pune. The group is also deepening ties with Flipkart to develop next-generation digital commerce infrastructure capable of handling massive AI workloads.
This integrated platform will seamlessly combine renewable energy production, transmission networks, and hyperscale AI compute capabilities, positioning it as the world’s largest of its kind. Adani has extended invitations to global tech giants, sovereign institutions, and innovation partners to join this transformative endeavor, underscoring a commitment to India’s technological sovereignty.
