Suzlon on Friday said it has secured a repeat order of 195 MW from Sunsure Energy, taking the total sales of its 3MW platform to nearly 9 GW.
This milestone reflects strong and sustained market adoption of the Suzlon 3X platform, a company statement said.
The order builds on the ongoing partnership between Suzlon and Sunsure Energy, bringing the cumulative partnership to nearly 300 MW across Maharashtra and Karnataka, and is expected to grow further.
With this order, Suzlon’s orderbook in Karnataka now stands at over 2 GW milestone, marking a key milestone in one of India’s leading wind markets.
Suzlon’s current installed base in Karnataka stands at 1,500MW, contributing to 24 per cent of Suzlon’s installed base in South India.
Suzlon will install 65 state-of-the-art S144 wind turbine generators (WTGs), each rated at a 3.0 MW capacity. It will supply wind turbines, execute the project, including erection and commissioning.
Suzlon will also undertake comprehensive operations and maintenance services post-commissioning.
The project is set to be executed in the Bijapur district of Karnataka. In addition, Suzlon is also executing other large commercial and industrial (C&I) projects in the state, with a total capacity of 664 MW.
Shashank Sharma, CEO, Sunsure Energy, said, “The next generation of clean energy infrastructure will not be the one that works when the sun shines or the wind blows - it will be defined by its ability to deliver power when India needs it the most.” Ajay Kapur, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, said, "We have built close to 300 MW of partnership with Sunsure Energy, driven by our consistent focus on quality, execution, and lifecycle support, which makes us a dependable partner for large and critical projects...”
