Adani plans to invest $100 billion in renewable AI data centres by 2035, in the purpose of boosting India's AI infrastructure and economy.
Adani Enterprises said on Tuesday (February 17, 2026) the group will invest $100 billion to build renewable energy-powered AI-ready data centres by 2035.
In a statement on Tuesday (February 17, 2026), the company said this investment will also catalyse an additional $150 billion across server manufacturing, cloud platforms, and supporting industries, creating a projected $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem in India, Adani Enterprises, the group’s flagship firm, said in a statement.
The initiative will establish a long-term sovereign energy and compute platform designed to position India as a global leader in the emerging intelligence revolution, the statement said.
Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani said, “The world is entering an intelligence revolution more profound than any previous industrial revolution, and nations that master the symmetry between energy and compute will shape the next decade.”
This roadmap builds on Adani Connex’s existing 2 GW national data centre, expanding toward a 5 GW target that positions India at the epicentre of the global AI economy, Mr. Adani said.
The company said the 5 GW deployment will create the world’s largest integrated data centre platform, combining renewable power generation, transmission infrastructure and hyperscale AI compute within a single coordinated architecture.

The U.S. has launched two investigations under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 against India and other economies to examine practices that may be ‘unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict U.S. commerce’. One probe examines whether countries, including India, are using excess manufacturing capacity to export to the U.S. in a manner that hurts American businesses, while another looks at whether countries have taken ‘sufficient steps’ to prohibit imports of goods produced with forced labour.
