Kosol Energie Pvt Ltd has committed to invest around Rs 90,000 crore, equivalent to $10.8 billion, in renewable energy projects in Gujarat. The commitment was formalised through a memorandum of understanding during the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2026, in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel.
The proposed investment covers the development of solar manufacturing facilities, research and development centres, large scale renewable energy parks, and integrated ecosystems for green hydrogen and green ammonia production.
