Adani Group firm Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd, which distributes power in Mumbai, on Wednesday said it will meet 30 per cent of the energy demand of the metro city through renewable sources and scale that proportion to 60 per cent by 2027.
“Adani Electricity has already taken steps to reduce Mumbai’s carbon footprint. With a major thrust on promoting renewable energy, Adani will fulfill over 30 per cent of Mumbai’s power requirements through renewable energy sources, which would further be scaled up to 60 per cent by 2027,” a company statement said.
This will offset up to 16 per cent of Mumbai’s total GHG (green house gases) emissions and make Mumbai one of the World’s first Metropolis to be powered by such a significant share of renewable energy, the statement said.
