Adani Foundation at ACC Sindri brings clean energy to farms and families through solar irrigation and water systems
The Adani Foundation, in collaboration with ACC Sindri, has introduced solar-powered irrigation and water systems to villages in Jharkhand’s Sindri region. These clean energy projects are reducing irrigation costs for farmers and providing over 150 families with reliable access to safe drinking water, boosting health, productivity, and sustainability.
Solar water pumps ensure clean drinking water access for 150 families, improving health and reducing daily hardship.
New Delhi, 20 August 2025: ACC, the cement and building materials company of the diversified Adani Portfolio, along with the Adani Foundation, has implemented solar-powered irrigation and water systems across the Gram Panchayat of Chhatatand and nearby villages in Sindri, Jharkhand.
These clean energy interventions are helping small farmers reduce irrigation costs, boost productivity, and are also ensuring safe drinking water access for more than 150 families in the region.
Until recently, erratic electricity and rising diesel prices made farming unreliable, while daily access to clean water remained a major challenge for many households. To address this, ACC installed 5 HP solar irrigation pumps across 15 acres of farmland in Chhatatand and Samlapur, enabling low-cost, uninterrupted irrigation.
At the same time, six 2 HP solar drinking water systems were installed across five villages, including Simatand, Kushberia and Jamadoba Basti. The systems pump water into overhead tanks, offering families a sustainable and safe source of drinking water close to home.
By integrating renewable energy into rural infrastructure, ACC and the Adani Foundation are advancing long-term self-reliance, improved health outcomes, and climate-friendly livelihoods in Jharkhand’s Sindri region.
