In India===Bihar, Adani reviewed plans for a 2,400 MW ultra-supercritical power project at Pirpainti, involving an investment of over ₹27,000 crore, aimed at meeting the state's industrial and urban electricity demand. Adani Power signed a 25-year Power Supply Agreement with Bihar State Power Generation Company Limited for this project.
