    Adani Group has announced its entry into the nuclear energy sector through Adani Atomic Energy, with plans to develop 10 GW of nuclear power generation capacity by 2035, marking a significant step in its strategy to support India’s long-term energy security and clean power ambitions.

    Speaking at the group’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Wednesday, Chairman Gautam Adani said land has already been identified for the proposed nuclear projects, positioning the company to meet the growing demand for reliable, round-the-clock clean energy.

    “Our entry into nuclear energy through Adani Atomic Energy is another confident step towards securing India’s long-term energy future. With land identified and a 10 GW targeted capacity by 2035, we are positioning ourselves early to serve the growing national demand for clean, round-the-clock power,” Adani said.

    The announcement formed part of a broader update on the conglomerate’s expansion across energy, logistics, ports, airports, data centres and mining.

    In the power transmission business, Adani Energy Solutions reported a transmission order book of ₹72,000 crore and secured major projects, including the Khavda South–Olpad HVDC transmission line, reinforcing its position as India’s only private-sector player with proven high-voltage direct current (HVDC) capabilities.

    The group also unveiled a partnership with Druk Green Power Corporation to jointly develop 5,000 MW of hydropower projects in Bhutan, further strengthening its clean energy portfolio.

    “At Adani Power, we are implementing India’s largest-ever private sector power capex programme of over ₹2 lakh crore, with a target of reaching 45 GW of generation capacity over the next five years,” Adani said.

    On the logistics front, Adani Ports handled more than 500 million tonnes of cargo in FY26, putting the company on track to achieve its goal of 1 billion tonnes of cargo handling capacity by 2030.

    Adani highlighted the performance of the Vizhinjam International Seaport, which crossed 1 million TEUs in its first year of operations.

    “Vizhinjam, one of the most strategic ports on the global maritime route, delivered a record first year by crossing 1 million TEUs. This is the fastest pace ever achieved by any Indian port and a strong signal of India’s arrival on the global transshipment map,” he said.

    In aviation, the group inaugurated the Navi Mumbai International Airport and the new integrated terminal building at Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport. Adani noted that Navi Mumbai Airport, scheduled to commence operations in December 2025, is being developed with a planned capacity of 90 million passengers annually.

    The conglomerate also outlined ambitious plans in digital infrastructure, with its data centre business targeting a 3 GW platform by 2030. Adani cited a binding memorandum of understanding with Google for a gigawatt-scale data centre project in Visakhapatnam, underscoring growing confidence from global technology companies.

    In mining, four new Mine Developer and Operator (MDO) agreements increased the group’s mining capacity to 145 million tonnes per annum, strengthening its position as India’s largest private-sector mining operator.

    Financially, the group reported consolidated revenue of ₹2.92 lakh crore in FY26, up 7.4% year-on-year. EBITDA rose to ₹94,834 crore, while profit after tax increased 13.9% to ₹46,376 crore. Cash flow stood at ₹67,995 crore, with the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio maintained at 3.3x.

    “These record numbers give us the financial strength, liquidity and confidence to fund our ambitious capex plans and continue building at unmatched scale across India’s core infrastructure sectors,” Adani said.
