Adani Green Energy leads with 87.3 ESG score
It showcases AGEN’s leadership in environmental, social and governance (ESG), climate strategy, resource management and transparency. The 1+ rating achieved by AGEN is the best ever achieved by an Indian company from CARE ESG.
This rating reflects the company’s leading role in integrating sustainability into its operations as a large-scale renewable energy developer.
CareEdge-ESG’s assessment is based on a comprehensive assessment of environmental, social and governance risks and opportunities across multiple indicators and comparisons with industry peer companies.
This assessment reflects the company’s strong performance in climate risk management, water management, waste management, biodiversity conservation and governance practices, supported by transparent disclosures and structured monitoring mechanisms.
This rating underlines AGEN’s systematic approach to managing environmental and social risks, achieved through well-articulated policies, management systems and the integration of enterprise-wide ESG considerations.
At a broader level, the rating reflects a shift within the Adani Group towards embedding sustainability across its infrastructure-based portfolio, including renewable energy, ports, logistics and utilities. ESG integration is increasingly shaping governance practices, risk management frameworks and long-term capital allocation in businesses.
The CareEdge-ESG rating also strengthens AGEL’s position among investors and lenders, particularly in a capital environment where sustainability performance is increasingly linked to access to financing.
This rating is expected to aid the company’s ability to raise sustainable and transition-oriented capital for large-scale renewable energy projects.

According to Saikat Roy, Chief Executive Officer, CareEdge-ESG, “Adani Green Energy Limited’s ESG rating reflects the company’s strong commitment to integrating sustainability considerations into its renewable energy operations and long-term growth strategy.”
