According to a cabinet statement, Adani Green Energy Ltd. of India and Sri Lanka have signed a 20-year power purchase deal for two wind power plants that the company has created.
Adani Green Energy, the renewable energy unit of the Adani Group, led by billionaire Gautam Adani, won the approval in February last year to invest $442 million and develop the 484 megawatts wind power plants in Mannar town and Pooneryn village, both situated in the Northern province of Sri Lanka.
The company will be paid 8.26 cents per kilowatt-hours (kWh) as per the agreement, the government mentioned. The Adani Group is also involved in building a $700 million terminal project at Sri Lanka's largest port in Colombo.
