Wind power major Suzlon Energy today said its subsidiary REpower Systems AG has bagged a contract from an Italian company for supplying 18 wind turbines.
REpower has concluded a contract for the supply of 18 wind turbines to Daunia Savignano, a subsidiary of Italian Tozzi Group, Suzlon said in a filing to the Bombay Stock Exchange.
REpower will be responsible for the supply, erection and commissioning of these wind turbines at Savignano wind farm in Southern Italy. The company would be supplying MM92 turbines having a rated output of 2.05 MW for the wind farm.
The company is already erecting 20 such turbines at the Savignano wind farm, it said.
The capacity of the project would be expanded by 36.9 MW via the 18 new turbines.
"The excellent cooperation between our two companies so far is illustrated by the fact that we were awarded the subsequent contract for this project by Tozzi," REpower Systems AG CEO Per Hornung said.
The firm, however, has not given any financial details of the project.
Shares of Suzlon Energy were today trading at Rs 75.30 on the BSE, up 0.13 per cent from previous close.
