Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) has received a CareEdge-ESG 1+ rating with a score of 87.3 from CARE
ESG Ratings Limited (CareEdge-ESG), a Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) registered ESG rating
provider. The score places AGEL at the top among all Indian companies assessed by CareEdge-ESG.
The rating reflects AGEL’s leadership in integrating sustainability across its operations as a large utility-
scale renewable energy developer. CareEdge-ESG’s evaluation is based on a comprehensive assessment
of environmental, social and governance risks and opportunities, benchmarking companies across
multiple indicators and industry peers. The assessment highlights strong performance across climate risk
management, water stewardship, waste management, biodiversity conservation and governance
practices, supported by transparent disclosures and structured oversight mechanisms. The rating
underscores AGEL’s structured approach to managing environmental and social risks through well-defined
policies, management systems and enterprise-wide integration of ESG considerations.
At a broader level, the recognition reflects a shift within the Adani Group towards embedding
sustainability across its infrastructure-led portfolio, including renewable energy, ports, logistics and
utilities. ESG integration is increasingly shaping governance practices, risk management frameworks and
long-term capital allocation across businesses.
The CareEdge-ESG rating also enhances AGEL’s positioning with investors and lenders, particularly in a
capital environment where sustainability performance is increasingly linked to access to financing. The
rating is expected to support the company’s ability to mobilise sustainable and transition-linked capital
for large-scale renewable energy projects.
