Suzlon Group, India’s leading provider of renewable energy solutions, announces that it has been awarded a contract to develop a 551.25 MW wind power project for the Aditya Birla Group. The project includes the installation of 175 wind turbines with hybrid tubular lattice towers of 3.15 MW each, spread across the districts of Barmer in Rajasthan and Bhuj in Gujarat. Suzlon supplies, supervises and commissions the wind turbines, and provides comprehensive operation and maintenance services after commissioning.

Collaboration and shared vision

Girish Tanti, Vice President of Suzlon Group, expresses his enthusiasm for this new collaboration with Aditya Birla Group, underlining their shared commitment to national construction and sustainable energy.

“We are delighted to once again partner with the Aditya Birla Group on this order. Suzlon admires and shares the nation-building values with the Aditya Birla Group and welcomes this opportunity to power them with sustainable energy. We applaud ABG’s visionary approach to powering the operations of its group companies with renewable energy and setting an example for India Inc. Suzlon’s comprehensive and proven product portfolio, customized for the Indian wind regime, will be key to increasing India’s renewable energy capacity in line with our national targets while powering Indian industry with green energy.”

With this initiative, Aditya Birla Group continues to set an example for Indian industry by adopting renewable energy operations.

Technology and service validation

JP Chalasani, CEO of Suzlon Group, says that every repeat customer validates Suzlon’s technology and service excellence.

“Each repeat customer is a validation of our technology and service excellence. I am grateful that the Aditya Birla Group has reaffirmed its confidence in Suzlon’s end-to-end solutions, products and services. This order will enable us to further strengthen our presence in Rajasthan and Gujarat, while helping these states unlock their true wind energy potential. Every Suzlon turbine is a testament to “Make in India” and “Aatmanirbhar Bharat”, being manufactured in India thanks to a thriving domestic ecosystem.”

This project strengthens Suzlon’s presence in Rajasthan and Gujarat, helping these states to fully exploit their wind energy potential.

Sustainable development goals

Jayant Dua, head of Aditya Birla Renewables Limited, emphasizes the importance of partnerships in supporting the company’s mission to provide renewable energy across India.

“At Aditya Birla Renewables Limited, we prioritize partnerships that strengthen our mission to power India Inc. with renewable energy, expanding the accessibility of green energy across the country. Suzlon’s technological expertise, manufacturing capabilities and comprehensive project development skills will help accelerate our energy transition journey and support our carbon neutrality commitments.”

Suzlon’s technology and skills in the wind power sector will help accelerate the energy transition and achieve carbon neutrality.

Future prospects

Suzlon uses DFIG technology to efficiently integrate wind turbines into the utility grid. Suzlon’s R&D efforts are aimed at improving turbine performance, harnessing more energy from low-wind sites and reducing energy costs.
Suzlon’s new wind power project with Aditya Birla Group is a major step forward for India in achieving its renewable energy goals. This collaboration illustrates both companies’ commitment to a greener, more sustainable future.
