Mumbai becoming global leader in adopting clean energy
In just a few years, Mumbai has rapidly become a global leader in adopting clean energy with minimal share in renewable energy. Mumbai’s renewable energy share now exceeds that of major global cities. Such mega projects have facilitated Mumbai’s renewable energy footprint and align well with its sustainability goals while contributing to India’s broader renewable energy goals.
In 2023, Adani Electricity Mumbai Limited has successfully met 38% of the power requirements of Mumbai consumers from renewable sources and is committed to reach the target of 60% by 2027.
