Billionaire Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries (RIL) will commission a New Energy Giga Complex in Gujarat in the second half (H2) of 2024, the company has said in an earnings statement and investor call. Reliance is building a giga complex spread over 5,000 acres in Jamnagar in Gujarat. The complex comprises five giga factories for photovoltaic panels, fuel cell system, green hydrogen, energy storage and power electronics. 

“On track to commence new energy facilities in phases this year,” the company has said in a post-third-quarter earnings call with investors. 

After the announcement of third-quarter earnings on Friday, Mr Ambani said that the “New Energy Giga Complex is all set to be commissioned in the second half of CY24. I am confident that Reliance’s new energy business will play a pivotal role in the global movement for adoption of cleaner fuels.” 

The Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex will be among the largest, integrated, renewable-energy manufacturing facilities in the world. 

Reliance has signed an MoU with the Gujarat government to set up 100-gigawatt renewable power at Rs 5-lakh crore capex. It has received in-principle approval for 74,750 hectares of land parcels in Kutch for green hydrogen. 

The company has strategically invested in ten global technology innovators with strong expertise across the new energy value chain.
