New Delhi: Avaada Group has entered into a significant agreement with the Odisha government, committing to invest Rs 20,700 crore to develop a range of Renewable Energy (RE) projects in the state. The pact was formalised through a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed in the presence of Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi at the Make in Odisha Conclave 2025, which was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier in the day.

The MoU signing ceremony took place at the Make in Odisha Conclave, a flagship event aimed at positioning the state as a key player in India's green energy sector. This summit serves as a platform for global investors, policymakers, and industry leaders to engage and explore investment opportunities in Odisha’s growing economy.
