However, Gautam Adani did not give any further details, such as the time or scale of the projects, apart from their value.
The announcement comes at a time when the US oil and gas industry group, the American Petroleum Institute (API), has asked Donald Trump to end several of President Joe Biden’s policies, which they claim have threatened jobs and energy security, according to a Money Control report.
Trump, meanwhile, used the slogan “Drill, baby, drill” in his victory speech to showcase his stance on the oil sector, promising to increase its production even further.
This also comes amid the Adani Group’s plans to set up 10 GW of overseas hydroelectric projects over the next few years, according to a Reuters report. The report added that the group is looking to build such projects in Nepal, Bhutan, Kenya, Tanzania, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
