ReNew Power awards 90MW order to Suzlon

The wind turbine manufacturer Suzlon Group has won new order for 90 MW turnkey project from its existing customer, ReNew Power - one of India’s largest independent power producers (IPPs), with clean energy assets of more than 1000 MW of commissioned and under-construction projects.
 
Suzlon will install its revolutionary S97 120m hybrid tower WTGs (wind turbine generator) with rated capacity of 2.1 MW in Ratlam district, Madhya Pradesh (MP). Suzlon will install 29 WTGs at the site Kode and 14 WTGs at Limbwas site in Ratlam district. The project is scheduled for commissioning by March 2016.
 
This is a repeat order from ReNew Power. Suzlon has commissioned 98.70 MW for ReNew Power so far and 100.80 MW is currently under execution in Rajasthan.
 
Suzlon will leverage its end-to-end wind solutions expertise to oversee the project operations. The S97 120m is World’s tallest Hybrid Tower designed to harness the wind energy across low wind sites. It is a combination of lattice and tubular structure which ensures higher yield and potential increase in power output by 12-14%. The project, jointly developed by ReNew Power and Suzlon is being executed by Suzlon as the EPC partner.
