Japan Ready to Collaborate with Adani Group, Says Ambassador After Meeting Gautam Adani

Japan’s Ambassador to India, Hiroshi Suzuki, expressed eagerness to work with the Adani Group after meeting its chairman, Gautam Adani, on May 29. Following their meeting, the ambassador shared his enthusiasm on social media platform X, highlighting their visit to Mundra Port and Khavda.

“Had a fantastic meeting with Mr. Gautam Adani, Chairman of Adani Group. Deeply grateful for his warm friendship and commitment to strengthening the special partnership between Japan and India. Eagerly looking forward to working together into the future,” Suzuki posted.

Adani also shared his thoughts on the meeting, emphasizing the visit to the world’s largest Hybrid Renewable Energy Park, a 30 GW project in Khavda, Gujarat, being developed by Adani Green Energy Limited.

The project covers 538 sq km, nearly the size of Mumbai and five times larger than Paris. On February 14, 2024, the project transferred 551 MW of solar energy to the national grid for the first time. Adani Green Energy Limited is investing around ₹1.5 lakh crore in the project.

Ambassador Suzuki’s visit underscores Japan’s interest in India’s renewable energy sector. Japan has been funding several infrastructure projects in India, including the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Project, the Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge, and the Chennai Peripheral Ring Road.
