Adani Power Expands Nuclear Energy Footprint with New Subsidiaries

Ahmedabad, April 2026 : Adani Power Limited on Tuesday announced the incorporation of a new step-down wholly-owned subsidiary, signalling its growing ambitions in the nuclear energy sector.

In a regulatory filing, the company said that its wholly-owned arm, Adani Atomic Energy Limited (AAEL), has established a new entity named Rawatbhata-Raj Atomic Energy Limited (RRAEL). The subsidiary was officially incorporated on April 20, 2026, in India.

RRAEL has been set up with an authorised capital of Rs 5 lakh, divided into 50,000 equity shares of Rs 10 each. The company clarified that RRAEL is entirely owned by AAEL, which in turn is fully owned by Adani Power, making it a step-down subsidiary within the group’s corporate structure.

“100 per cent of the shareholding of RRAEL is held by AAEL, and 100 per cent of AAEL is held by Adani Power Limited,” the company stated, reaffirming its complete ownership and control over the new venture.

In a parallel development on the same day, another group entity, Adani Energy, also announced the incorporation of a step-down wholly-owned subsidiary named Coastal-Maha Atomic Energy Limited. This entity will operate in the nuclear power segment, focusing on the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity derived from atomic energy.

According to its stock exchange filing, the newly formed company will undertake activities related to producing and supplying nuclear energy, highlighting the group’s broader strategy to diversify into cleaner and more sustainable power sources.

These back-to-back incorporations underline the Adani Group’s increasing interest in the nuclear energy space, a sector that is expected to play a crucial role in India’s long-term energy transition. As the country looks to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and meet climate commitments, nuclear energy is being positioned as a key component of the clean energy mix.

Currently, India’s installed nuclear power capacity stands at around 8.7 gigawatts. The government has set an ambitious target to expand this capacity to 100 gigawatts by 2047, aligning with its broader vision of achieving energy security and sustainability.

The Adani Group’s latest moves indicate a strategic push to tap into this emerging opportunity, positioning itself at the forefront of India’s evolving energy landscape.
