This collaboration aims to power India’s sustainable, AI-ready digital infrastructure. STT GDC India is on track for carbon neutrality by 2030, while CleanMax has 42% of its 5.7 GW portfolio in the AI and data centre segment.
The expansion of renewable energy capacity is significant for the data centre sector's sustainability goals and CleanMax's growth in the AI segment, impacting operational costs and environmental footprint.
The expansion of the renewable energy partnership and the focus on powering sustainable digital infrastructure, including AI-ready data centres, indicates positive growth and strategic alignment for both companies.
Clean Max Enviro Energy Solutions Limited (CleanMax) and STT Global Data Centres India Private Ltd. (STT GDC India) have expanded their renewable energy partnership, executing new Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).
This expansion includes an additional 21 MWp of solar capacity, augmenting CleanMax’s existing wind-solar hybrid power supply to STT GDC India’s data centres in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The overall partnership now exceeds 130 MW of reliable hybrid renewable energy capacity across key data centre hubs in Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra. As part of the arrangement, STT GDC India will invest 26% in the renewable energy project, scaling its contracted green energy capacity in captive mode.
Mr. Kuldeep Jain, Managing Director of CleanMax, highlighted the increasing importance of integrating renewable energy at scale for the future of digital infrastructure, driven by AI and data-led growth. Mr. Bimal Khandelwal, CEO of STT GDC India, stated that the expansion supports the rising intensity of AI-led and high-density workloads and reaffirms their commitment to carbon neutrality by 2030, with renewables contributing approximately 70% of their energy mix by CY 2025.
The AI and data centre segment now represents approximately 42% of CleanMax’s contracted capacity of 5.7 GW, marking a significant growth over the past two years and underscoring CleanMax's role in powering India's digital backbone towards a sustainable future.
