India Builds World’s Largest Renewable Energy Park at Khavda in Gujarat
January 22, 2026
India is rapidly constructing what is set to become the world’s biggest renewable energy facility at Khavda in Gujarat’s Kutch district, combining solar and wind power to generate up to 30 gigawatts (GW) of clean electricity, a capacity large enough to power millions of homes and surpassing any single renewable site globally.
The Khavda Renewable Energy Park, developed mainly by Adani Green Energy Ltd, spans roughly 538 square kilometers of barren land near the Pakistan border and is designed as a hybrid solar and wind power installation. So far, multiple phases of the project have already begun generating electricity, with a fraction of its planned capacity operational and more being added each year.
Construction on the site began in late 2022, and the first sections began producing power in late 2023. The project involves installing millions of solar panels and hundreds of turbines, with work underway on associated infrastructure such as grid connections and storage systems.
Officials involved say the hybrid design helps balance supply, with solar output peaking during the day and wind power generating more at night. Plans also include large-scale battery storage to help stabilize output when natural conditions fluctuate.
The development at Khavda reflects India’s growing shift toward renewable energy as it expands capacity to meet rising power needs and reduce dependence on fossil fuels, although coal remains a significant part of the country’s energy mix.
