Suzlon Secures 302 MW Wind Project from Jindal Renewables

New Delhi, Dec 4 (PTI) Suzlon Group on Wednesday said the company has secured an additional wind project of 302.4 megawatt from Jindal Renewables in Karnataka.

In October, Suzlon had announced securing a 400-megawatt (MW) wind power deal from Jindal Renewables Power.

"Suzlon and JSP Green Wind 1, a subsidiary of Jindal Renewables, have expanded their partnership with an additional 302.4 MW wind power project in the Koppal region of Karnataka," the group said in a statement.

The second order brings the total capacity from Jindal Renewables to 702.4 MW, making it Suzlon's largest-ever commercial and industrial (C&I) order from a single customer.


Under the strategic agreement, Suzlon will supply 96 wind turbine generators (WTGs) of S144 series with hybrid lattice (HLT) towers, each rated at a 3.15 MW capacity.

The power generated will be used at steel plants in Chhattisgarh and Odisha, Suzlon said without disclosing the exact value of the multi-crore order.

Suzlon Group Vice-Chairman Girish Tanti said, "This collaboration will propel our joint green steel mission forward, while significantly contributing to India's ambitious renewable energy target of 50 per cent electricity from non-fossil fuels by 2030."

Pune-based Suzlon Group is one of the leading renewable energy solutions providers in the world with 20.8 GW of wind energy capacity installed across 17 countries.
