Aditya Birla Renewables (ABREN), a subsidiary of Grasim Industries and a part of the Aditya Birla Group, has announced that the company has finalised an investment by Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), part of BlackRock, of up to INR 3,000 crore.
This includes a commitment of INR 2,000 crore and a greenshoe option to invest another INR 1,000 crore. The GIP investment translates into an enterprise value of about INR 14,600 crore for ABREN, the company said in a statement.
ABREN has achieved robust organic growth, building a diversified pan-India renewable energy portfolio of about 4.3 GW across 10 states. This portfolio delivers solar, hybrid, floating solar, and round-the-clock renewable power.
Commenting on the development, Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman, Aditya Birla Group, said, “India stands at the cusp of an energy transformation, arguably one of the largest anywhere in the world. The scale of the renewables opportunity in India is extraordinary, driven both by the urgent imperative of decarbonisation and the sheer arithmetic of demand. This business sits squarely at the intersection of national energy security and climate leadership, two defining priorities for the coming decades.”
He further added, “GIP’s investment marks a pivotal moment in our growth journey, laying a strong foundation for an accelerated buildout of our renewables platform, as we target a capacity of about 10 GW in the coming years. Their global leadership in owning and operating some of the most sophisticated energy assets worldwide brings both rigour and reach to our ambition. At the Aditya Birla Group, we see our renewables business emerging as a powerful growth engine for the Group, technologically advanced, capital-efficient, and deeply aligned with the future India is building.”
Jayant Dua, Business Head, ABREN, said, “ABREN is on an accelerated growth journey, and we look forward to this partnership with GIP as we build on our competitive positioning in the renewables sector in India. ABREN, backed by an experienced team, is well-positioned to achieve its growth ambitions by executing complex, large-scale renewable projects. We aim to build a comprehensive renewables platform with a presence across all major technologies, focusing on both Commercial and Industrial (C&I) segment and utility-scale projects.”
Raj Rao, GIP President and Chief Operating Officer, said, “GIP’s experience in infrastructure across the globe, combined with Aditya Birla’s technical, operational and industrial capabilities, aims to develop Aditya Birla Renewables into a leading renewable platform that can contribute to the Indian industry’s decarbonisation objective. Our investment reflects GIP’s confidence in India’s renewables sector and our commitment to advancing the energy transition in India.”
