World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development (WED), an International Day by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) and brought to you by the World Federation of Engineering Organizations (WFEO), has chosen the Adani Group as its official partner for the year 2026.
This is the first time the WFEO has selected an Indian group to acknowledge the work of engineers on World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development.
According to India’s largest infrastructure, utility, and transportation developer, this demonstrates the Adani Group’s leadership in promoting the transition to clean energy and its capacity to provide clean, dependable, and cost-effective electricity at scale, thereby bolstering India’s energy security and advancing global sustainability goals (Sustainable Development Goal 7).
We are proving that clean energy may be both large-scale and inexpensive, potent, and inclusive. This is India’s gift to the globe: a paradigm where progress and sustainability advance simultaneously. India’s climate efforts are symbolized by our renewable energy facility in Khavda.
According to Adani Green Energy Executive Director Sagar Adani, it demonstrates the combined power of Adani Green Energy, Adani Energy Solutions, and Adani New Industries collaborating to promote an integrated renewable future.
The focus of ‘WED 2026‘ is on smart engineering for a sustainable future through digitalization and innovation.
This perspective is reflected in the Adani Group’s operations in renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and large-scale transportation and utility infrastructure, which shows how technology-driven engineering may foster sustainable development in real-world settings.
The planned capacity of the Khavda renewable energy project in Gujarat is 30 GW by 2029, which the WFEO has highlighted as a defining example of India’s green transition under its World Engineering Day 2026 program and has featured a short film showcasing the scale, ambition, and impact of the project.
It spans 538 square kilometers, making it five times larger than Paris and about the same size as Mumbai. It will be the biggest power plant in the world across all energy sources when it is finished.
At Khavda, AGEL has so far put into operation a cumulative renewable energy capacity of more than 7 GW, and by 2029, it will have produced the entire 30 GW.
