Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) said today that it has received recognition for saving water from consumption.
“AGEL has been certified as Water Positive by DNV, an independent global insurance agency. The verification statement indicates that AGEL’s water savings exceed consumption,” said a company statement.
DNV performed a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the water balance index for AGEL’s operational sites with a capacity of more than 200 MW in Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh.
According to the assessment, the water balance index is 1.12 (positive), well exceeding its goal of becoming net water neutral by FY25.
