The company has secured a fresh order for the supply and installation of wind turbines with a total capacity of 195 MW from Sunsure Energy. With this latest contract, Suzlon’s total sales for its advanced 3 MW platform have reached nearly 9 GW.
As part of the order, Suzlon will supply 65 S144 Wind Turbine Generators, with a rated capacity of 3 MW, and the project will be executed in the Bijapur District of Karnataka.
With this, Suzlon Energy’s order book has crossed 2 GW in Karnataka and its partnership with Sunsure Energy is now nearing 300 MW. The company is also executing other large commercial and industrial (C&I) projects in the state, with a total capacity of 664 MW.
“Karnataka has emerged as our largest market by orderbook with over 2 GW orders from our existing orderbook, making it a top priority market for us alongside Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan and Maharashtra. The strong growth is driven by rising demand from the large commercial and industrial (C&I) segment, where wind is increasingly preferred for RTC solutions,” Girish Tanti, Suzlon Group’s Executive Vice Chairman said.
Sunsure Energy, an independent power producer, is actively developing projects across states including Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan, and Karnataka, with a target of reaching 10 GW of operational capacity by 2030.
Shares of Suzlon Energy are trading 0.4% higher on Friday at ₹53.1. The stock has remained flat over the last one month and also on a year-to-date basis.
