  • Dossier on the Adani Group's Environmental and Social Record
    Dossier on the Adani Group’s environmental and social record Construction of Adani’s Godda power station proceeds on lands acquired from indigenous (Adivasi) farmers near Godda. Two Adivasi look on. Photo by Geoff Law, February 2020 Preliminary Edition, September 2020 Preamble AdaniWatch is a non-profit project established by the Bob Brown Foundation to shine a light on the Adani Group’s misdeeds across the planet. In Australia, Adani is best known as the company behind the proposed Carmichael coal mine in Queensland. However, the Adani Group is a conglomeration of companies engaged in a vast array of businesses, including coal-fired power stations, ports, palm oil, airports, defence industries, solar power, real estate and gas. The group’s founder and chairman, Gautam Adani, has been described as India’s second-richest man and is a close associate of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Adani Group is active in several countries but particularly in India, where accusations of corruption and environmental destruction have dogged its rise to power. In central India, Adani intends to strip mine ancestral lands belonging to the indigenous Gond people. Large tracts of biodiverse forest, including elephant habitat, are in the firing line. Around the coastline of India, Adani’s plans to massively expand its ports are generating outcry from fishing villages and conservationists. In the country’s east, Adani is building a thermal power station designed to burn coal from Queensland and sell expensive power to neighbouring Bangladesh. Investigations, court actions and allegations of impropriety have accompanied Adani’s progress in many of these business schemes.

  • The 2500 MW Mundra-Haryana Adani HVDC Project
    Issue 10/10 http://www.siemens.com/FACTS HVDC/FACTS - Highlights http://www.siemens.com/HVDC The 2,500 MW Mundra-Haryana Adani HVDC Project Reliability and availability for India’s Grid Siemens Energy is to install a high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission system with a capacity of 2,500 megawatts (MW) for the private investor Adani Power Limited (APL) in India. Since India's economy grows continuously, the demand for energy has increased at an average of 3.6% per annum over the past 30 years and it became the world's 6th largest energy consumer. Due to the power situation, Adani Power Ltd. has ambitious plans to generate around 10,000 MW of power by 2013. Its thermal power plants near Mundra will produce up to 4,620 MW. The private investor Adani Power Ltd. is also India’s major importer of coal and operates the world’s largest harbor terminal for imported coal. At the same time the Ahmedabad- based company is India’s largest private energy trader. With modern technology and minimum loss of energy, the Green initiative of APL is supported by the new HVDC link from Siemens. Fig. 1: Siemens HVDC projects in India Power Transmission by Siemens HVDC In need of electrical energy, the region Haryana near New Delhi will be supplied in the future by Adani’s thermal power plants in Mundra, which is located approximately one thousand kilometers away. Low-loss transmission over that distance is only possible with the planned HVDC system at a DC voltage level of 500 kV.
