In a landmark move for Gujarat’s clean energy journey. Avaada Group has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Gujarat to invest INR 36,000 crore across solar, wind, and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects. The announcement was made at the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2025. It marked a bold step toward sustainable, reliable, and large-scale renewable energy deployment in the state.
Powering Gujarat’s Future: Scale, Vision, Impact
What makes this partnership significant is not just the investment or capacity, it is a shared vision for a cleaner, greener, and economically vibrant Gujarat.
• Massive Scale – Avaada Group will establish 5 GW of solar power, 1 GW of wind power, and 5 GWh of battery storage across Kutch, Banaskantha, and Surendranagar. These integrated projects will ensure steady, round-the-clock green energy for homes, businesses, and industries.
• Grid Reliability & Sustainability – By pairing renewable generation with advanced battery storage, the projects will stabilize the grid, optimize energy dispatch, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
• Employment & Community Impact – Collectively, these projects are expected to generate over 1,000 direct jobs, 2,000 indirect jobs, and nearly 5,000 employment opportunities during construction, benefiting local communities.
Shared Values: Innovation, Responsibility, and Impact
Avaada Group’s approach is deeply aligned with Gujarat’s sustainability and economic ambitions. The projects are designed to offset more than 12 million tons of CO₂ emissions annually and save around 166 million litres of water through advanced robotic module cleaning.
Kishor Nair, CEO of Avaada Energy, said:
“This partnership reflects our shared vision with the Government of Gujarat to create sustainable, clean, and inclusive energy solutions. Beyond capacity and investment, we are committed to empowering communities, creating jobs, and delivering long-term environmental benefits.”
Proven Track Record in Gujarat
Avaada is already a proven pioneer in renewable energy within the state. The company recently inaugurated a 280 MW solar project in Surendranagar. It is spread across 1,170 acres with an investment of INR 1,500 crore, using ALMM-certified TOPCon n-type bifacial solar modules. In addition, the foundation stone for a 100 MW solar project in Vadodara has been laid, covering 350 acres and representing a further INR 400 crore investment.
The Bigger Picture: Gujarat as a Renewable Leader
With these projects, Avaada Group isn’t just building power plants, it is helping shape Gujarat as a national leader in clean energy. The integrated renewable and storage portfolio ensures energy reliability, promotes local employment, and fosters environmental stewardship.
Conclusion: A Transformative Step Forward
Avaada Group’s MoU with the Gujarat government is more than an investment. It is a vision for sustainable growth, clean energy leadership, and community empowerment. By combining scale, technology, and purpose, Avaada is helping the state accelerate its transition to green power. It is also setting a benchmark for other regions to follow.
