Suzlon Group, India’s largest renewable energy solutions provider, has won a new order for the development of a 225 MW wind power project for Everrenew Energy Private Limited. Suzlon will install 75 Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) with a Hybrid Lattice Tubular (HLT) tower and a rated capacity of 3 MW each at the client’s sites at Vengaimandalam, Trichy district and Ottapidaram, Tuticorin district in Tamil Nadu.
This order is for the company’s larger rated 3 MW, S144-140m turbines from the 3 – 3.15 MW product series. As part of the agreement, Suzlon will supply the wind turbines (equipment supply) and supervise the project, including commissioning. Suzlon will also undertake comprehensive operations and maintenance services post-commissioning. Suzlon turbines feature the time tested Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) technology.
Commenting on the development, Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, said, “As India’s renewable energy ambition sets benchmarks across the world, we are honoured to partner with companies across the value chain to further their renewable energy goals. India has one of the most conducive policy environments and a thriving ecosystem from R&D and manufacturing to operations and maintenance services. Combined with one of the lowest costs of energy in the world, these factors make Indian renewables stand out in the global market. This project with Everrenew Energy serves the promising C&I segment of the Indian market, which will be important in driving our national targets over time.”
