Adani Group Chairman, taking to X on Tuesday, said he was grateful to the Ambassador for his visit to Adani’s 30 GW Renewable Energy site at Khavda and Mundra Port.
“Invaluable insights on geopolitics, energy transition and India-U.S. relations in an open and candid Q&A with Adanis. Amazing to see his adoption of Indian culture, from kadak chai to celebrating holi, to playing cricket to speaking in Hindi and eating chole bhature every day!” Gautam Adani wrote on his X timeline as he shared a picture of both in the post.

At COP26 held in 2021, India as a whole committed to an ambitious five-part “Panchamrit” pledge. They included reaching 500 GW of non-fossil electricity capacity, generating half of all energy requirements from renewables, to reducing emissions by 1 billion tonnes by 2030.
India also aims to reduce the emissions intensity of GDP by 45%. Finally, India commits to net-zero emissions by 2070.
