Adani Green Energy Gallery Attracts 7 Lakh Visitors to London’s Science Museum
New Delhi : The Science Museum in London, UK, witnessed an impressive footfall of 7 lakh visitors in the first year of “The Energy Revolution: The Adani Green Energy Gallery”, exploring groundbreaking technologies for a low-carbon future, Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) announced on Wednesday.
Sponsored by AGEL and curated by the Science Museum, the gallery was inaugurated on March 26, 2024, by Gautam Adani, Chairman of Adani Green Energy. The exhibition, which is free to enter, delves into how renewable energy solutions can combat climate change.
“The gallery showcases sustainable energy generation and usage to accelerate decarbonization and mitigate climate change,” AGEL stated. Within a year of its launch, the gallery attracted 700,000 visitors and hosted over 40 curator-led tours for organizations such as the Climate Change Committee, Met Office, World Energy Council, Universcience, and several UK government departments.
These tours have provided valuable insights into energy transition and decarbonization strategies. Notably, the gallery also won the prestigious 2024 Brick Awards in the Innovation category for its low-carbon brick bench exhibit—the world’s first 100% hydrogen-fired brick, demonstrating an 81-84% reduction in carbon emissions compared to natural gas-fired bricks.
Additionally, the gallery recently updated its Decarbonisation Tracker Exhibit, which monitors the carbon intensity of Britain’s electricity supply over time. It reflects that in 2024, the UK achieved record-low CO2 emissions per kilowatt-hour of electricity supplied, and this tracking will continue until 2035.
Dedicated to climate science, the gallery examines the rapid transition to cleaner energy sources. As a global leader in renewable energy, AGEL operates over 13 gigawatts of wind, solar, and hybrid energy projects, reinforcing its commitment to a net-zero future.
Designed by award-winning architects Unknown Works, the gallery integrates sustainable elements such as recycled aluminium and repurposed shelves from the Science Museum’s former storage, minimizing its carbon footprint.
