Adani Green Energy reported a strong Q4 FY24 with revenue from power supply up 33% YoY to INR 7,735 crore and EBITDA up 30% to INR 7,222 crore, maintaining an industry-leading EBITDA margin of 92%. The company added 2,848 MW of greenfield capacity in FY24, a 35% YoY increase, and operationalized 2 GW at the Khavda project within 12 months. Management guided for at least 6,000 MW of capacity addition in FY25 and revised the 2030 target to 50 GW, fully funded. The net debt to run-rate EBITDA improved to 4x from 5.4x. Key strategic initiatives include developing 5 GW of pumped hydro storage by 2030 and increasing merchant/C&I exposure to ~10% of the portfolio. Risks include potential module supply constraints from ALMM regulations and execution challenges in pumped hydro projects.

NEW
2030 capacity target revised to 50 GW

Revised the 2030 renewable energy capacity target from 45 GW to 50 GW, with 100% funding locked in from debt and equity.

NEW
Pumped hydro storage target of 5 GW by 2030

Targeting at least 5 GW of pumped hydro storage capacity by 2030, with first 500 MW project in Andhra Pradesh under construction and expected commissioning by FY27.

NEW
Merchant/C&I exposure to be ~10% of portfolio

Management indicated that merchant and C&I capacity will be about 10% of the portfolio mix, up from current ~5%.

UPDATED
FY25 capacity addition target of at least 6,000 MW

Management guided for greenfield capacity addition of at least 6,000 MW in FY25, with a run-rate of 6,000-8,000 MW per year going forward.

DROPPED
Execution capacity to exceed 5 GW from next year

The company aims to scale execution capacity to north of 5 GW from next fiscal year, up from the current ~2.5 GW.

DROPPED
Pumped storage project implementation to start next fiscal year

Management confirmed that pumped storage project implementation will begin in the next financial year, with one project in advanced stages.

DROPPED
Merchant portfolio to reach low teens by end of decade

Merchant capacity is expected to grow to low teens (as a percentage of total portfolio) by 2030, from current 3-5%.

NEW RISK
ALMM module supply constraints

ALMM regulations may restrict module imports, but management stated all FY25 requirements are fully locked in and de-risked.

NEW RISK
Execution risk in pumped hydro projects

Pumped hydro is a complex infrastructure project with longer timelines (3-3.5 years) and higher capital costs (INR 4.5-5 crore/MW).

NEW RISK
Merchant power price volatility

Increased merchant exposure to 10% exposes the portfolio to spot price fluctuations, though management sees strong demand tailwinds.

NEW RISK
Transmission evacuation delays

While management claims 100% transmission tie-ups for the pipeline, any delays in grid connectivity could impact project commissioning.

RISK GONE
Execution delays due to transmission and supply chain

Transmission evacuation readiness and supply chain constraints for long-lead items could delay capacity additions.

RISK GONE
ALMM policy impact on module costs

Implementation of ALMM from April 2024 may restrict procurement from China, potentially increasing module costs for new projects.

RISK GONE
Pumped storage project execution risks

Pumped storage projects have long gestation periods (5 years) and require clearances; past industry stalling poses a risk.

RISK GONE
Module price volatility affecting returns

While lower module prices improve returns, sustainability of current low prices is uncertain, impacting project economics.
