Adani<\/strong> Power<\/strong> has set up a nuclear generation and distribution subsidiary, Adani Atomic Energy<\/strong>, The Economic Times<\/a> reports.The firm's venture into nuclear power could create investment windows for Gulf investors, particularly the SWFs, which already own a share of the pie in Adani Group companies.<\/p>\n

Policy revamp: <\/strong>The move follows new laws introduced in December that dismantled the state\u2019s decades-old monopoly on nuclear power<\/a> and invited private capital into the sector for the first time. <\/p>\n

Why it matters:<\/strong> It aligns perfectly with the India-UAE civil nuclear energy ties<\/a>, positioning Adani as a private vehicle for cross-border joint ventures in small modular reactors to power the corridor\u2019s high-growth AI and data center hubs. India and the UAE are exploring partnership to develop large nuclear reactors and small modular reactors. <\/p>\n

This marks the group\u2019s entry into the nuclear power segment as it seeks to phase out coal-fired power projects.<\/strong> Adani Power has previously outlined plans<\/a> to replace its 18 GW thermal capacity with 30 GW of nuclear capacity as legacy power purchase agreements expire. <\/p>\n

The pattern: <\/strong>This comes as Tata Power evaluates three potential sites across the country for future nuclear power projects<\/a>. Adani is positioning itself alongside Tata as a private-sector counterpart to the government\u2019s ambitious 100 GW nuclear target by 2047<\/a>. India currently has 8.7 GW of nuclear capacity. <\/p>\n

Budgetary tailwind:<\/strong> India\u2019s 2026 national budget handed the new entrants, Tata and Adani in this case, a major advantage by extending customs duty exemptions<\/a> on nuclear equipment until 2035 \u2014 crucial for a company that will likely need to import reactor technology. <\/p>\n
