Suzlon Energy Limited (SEL), wind turbine manufacturer, announced that it has won a repeat order from the Malpani Group to set up, operate and maintain projects totalling 29.70 mega watt.
Malpani Group from the state of Maharashtra exists in business verticals such as agro, entertainment and leisure, real estate and FMCG, in addition to wind energy.
"This is an important step forward in our efforts to create a sustainable energy portfolio for our group and build on our earlier successful projects with the Suzlon Group. This also helps us to meet our clean energy goals set as a part of our corporate social responsibility", said Rajesh Malpani, director, Malpani Group.
In this sixth order to Suzlon, the Malpani Group has opted to include Suzlon's recently launched S9X turbines in the product mix. The 29.70 mega watt order comprises of five units of S95 - 2.1 mega watt, seven units of Suzlon's S88 - 2.1 mega watt and three units of Suzlon's S82 - 1.5 mega watt wind turbine generators.
This project is expected to take Malpani Group's total wind capacity to more than 125 MW, which is apparently enough energy to power more than 72,000 Indian households. "We have a long standing relationship with the Malpani Group and their continued business with us not only underscores their faith in our capabilities, but also their dedication to clean energy solutions. We look forward to delivering yet another successful project for the Group", said Tulsi Tanti, founder, Suzlon Group.
