Vineet Mittal, India’s pioneering ‘greentrepreneur’, is redefining the global energy landscape as Founder and Chairman of Avaada Group. With a bold vision to position India as the world’s leading renewable energy hub, he is making a profound impact on the nation’s clean energy transition.
Under his leadership, Avaada has evolved into a diversified energy conglomerate, driving advancements in Renewable Energy, Solar PV Manufacturing, Green Data Centers, Pumped Hydro Storage, Battery Energy Storage Solutions and Green Hydrogen & its derivatives—including Green Methanol and Green Ammonia.
A Global Trailblazer
A distinguished NIT engineer and Harvard Business School alumnus, Vineet Mittal has earned global recognition for his groundbreaking contributions to green energy and digital transformation. In 2022, Avaada achieved a historic milestone—building one of the world’s largest single-site solar projects by a private IPP, of 1.25 GWp capacity, in Rajasthan.
Beyond business, Mr. Mittal is a recognized thought leader in global climate action. As a World Economic Forum member, he has played a key role in shaping sustainable policies worldwide. He previously served as Co-Chair of the B20 Task Force on Energy, Climate Change, and Resource Efficiency, and is currently Chairman of the CII National Committee on Green Hydrogen, championing India’s leadership in the clean hydrogen economy.
In 2025, the University of Engineering and Management, Jaipur, conferred an honorary Ph.D. upon Mr. Mittal in recognition of his pathbreaking contributions to renewable energy, sustainability and technological innovation.
Shaping India’s Digital and Energy Transformation
Vineet Mittal’s journey is a story of vision, innovation, and resilience. In his early career, he was among the pioneering minds at a leading telecom company, helping launch Internet access in India. A trailblazer in the dot-com, BPO, and renewable energy sectors, his entrepreneurial spirit has continuously driven industries forward. His groundbreaking work has earned him numerous accolades, including the “Solar Man of the Year” award twice.
Inspired by the five core elements of Ayurveda—ether, air, fire, water, and earth—Mr. Mittal envisions Avaada as an extension of nature’s bounty, where technology and tradition converge to build a self-sustaining future for generations to come.
Growth with a Higher Purpose
For Mr. Mittal, leadership is a calling, not just a profession. His philosophy of “People Before Profits” ensures that business success is measured not just in numbers but in societal impact. In 2023, Avaada secured a landmark $1.3 billion funding round, proving that when a business is aligned with ethics and values, it attracts global trust and investment—and becomes a force for meaningful change.
Beyond boardrooms, Mr. Mittal remains deeply committed to nation-building. Through the Avaada Foundation, he personally oversees philanthropic initiatives across 15 states in India, addressing critical issues in education, healthcare, and rural empowerment.
A dedicated practitioner of Ashtanga Yoga and a seeker of higher truths, Mr. Mittal believes that inner transformation precedes outer impact. His Karmayogi philosophy, where action is driven by purpose and service, shapes both his business decisions and his commitment to humanity.
