Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) announced that it has incorporated the recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) into its fundamental sustainability approach, bolstering its transition to nature-positive renewable energy growth.

The TNFD framework is an international initiative driven by scientific principles, established by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative, the United Nations Development Program, the World Wildlife Fund, and Global Canopy.

It offers a systematic approach for organizations to recognize, evaluate, manage, and disclose risks and opportunities related to nature.

Through adherence to the TNFD framework, AGEL enhances its leadership role among worldwide renewable firms by incorporating biodiversity factors into strategic choices, thereby advancing global conservation goals and reinforcing India's climate leadership.

This reinforces AGEL's goal to evolve from conventional Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) compliance towards a more cohesive, nature-positive approach to renewable energy development.
