AGEL Aligns with TNFD to Advance Nature-Positive Renewable Growth

Adani Green Energy has strengthened its sustainability agenda by adopting the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework across its enterprise, embedding nature-related risk and opportunity assessments into its core strategic planning. The move positions AGEL among the leading global renewable companies integrating biodiversity considerations into long-term decision-making.

Beginning FY24, the company undertook site-level evaluations to map nature-related dependencies, impacts and risks across all operational locations, signalling its intent to shift from conventional ESG compliance to a more holistic, nature-positive development model. AGEL has also pledged to achieve no net loss of biodiversity by 2030 and plans to plant 27.86 million trees across its project portfolio as part of its ecological stewardship commitments.

Company Quote: “Nature is central to our growth story. By mainstreaming TNFD principles, we aim to build resilient ecosystems alongside renewable energy infrastructure. Addressing nature-related risks in a positive manner is essential for long-term business resilience and sustainable value creation,” said Ashish Khanna, CEO, AGEL.

The TNFD framework, developed by UNEP FI, UNDP, WWF and Global Canopy, provides a science-led structure for assessing and disclosing nature-related risks and opportunities. AGEL’s alignment with the framework builds on its existing ESG credentials, including certified water-positive operations, single-use-plastic-free status and zero waste-to-landfill sites. The company is also a signatory to the India Business Biodiversity Initiative, further strengthening its leadership in nature-aligned renewable development.
