Amazon Invests in Three Wind Energy Projects in India

12 Feb 2025 CW Team

The projects, which are part of Amazon’s broader sustainability strategy, include the CleanMax Koppal project (100 MW) in Karnataka, BluPine Solapur (99 MW) in Maharashtra, and JSW Energy Dharapuram (180 MW) in Tamil Nadu. These developments are expected to help India in meeting its ambitious target of generating 50% of its electricity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030.

Union Minister for Communications, Electronics & Information Technology, Ashwini Vaishnaw, welcomed Amazon’s investment, emphasizing India’s growing role as a global clean energy leader. “Under PM Narendra Modi’s leadership, India is accelerating its clean energy transition. Investments from global giants like Amazon will play a crucial role in achieving our sustainability goals,” Vaishnaw said.

Minister of State for Power and Renewable Energy, Shripad Yesso Naik, also lauded Amazon’s initiative, calling it a significant milestone in the country’s renewable energy journey. “Wind and solar projects are key for energy security. These investments will reduce emissions, create jobs, and boost local economies,” he stated.

Amazon, which is one of the largest global purchasers of corporate solar and wind energy, has already invested in more than 600 renewable energy projects worldwide, including over 50 in India. The company’s Climate Pledge aims to reach net-zero carbon emissions across all operations by 2040.

With the latest addition of these wind projects, Amazon now has 53 renewable energy projects in India, delivering over 4 million megawatt-hours (MWh) of carbon-free energy—enough to power more than 1.3 million homes.

India’s renewable energy sector is witnessing rapid growth, and Amazon’s investments are playing a key role in accelerating the country’s green transition.
