Pune: In line with its continued growth momentum, Suzlon has secured a repeat order of 195 MW from Sunsure Energy, taking the total sales of its highly successful 3MW platform to nearly 9 GW. This milestone reflects strong and sustained market adoption for the Suzlon 3X platform. This order builds on the ongoing partnership between Suzlon and Sunsure, bringing the cumulative partnership to nearly 300 MW across Maharashtra and Karnataka, and is expected to grow further.
With this order, Suzlon’s orderbook in Karnataka now stands at over 2 GW milestone, marking a key milestone in one of India’s leading wind markets. Suzlon’s current installed base in Karnataka stands at 1,500MW, contributing to 24% of Suzlon’s installed base in South India.
Suzlon will install 65 state-of-the-art S144 wind turbine generators (WTGs), each rated at a 3.0 MW capacity. It will supply wind turbines, execute the project, including erection and commissioning. Suzlon will also undertake comprehensive operations and maintenance services post-commissioning. The project is set to be executed in the Bijapur district of Karnataka. In addition, Suzlon is also executing other large commercial and industrial (C&I) projects in the state, with a total capacity of 664 MW.
Girish Tanti, Executive Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, said, “As highlighted by Shri Narendra Modi in his recent Mann Ki Baat address, India’s growing focus on renewable energy, especially wind is playing a critical role in building an energy-secure future. Our 3 MW platform is contributing to this vision immensely as our most successful innovation yet and a key driver for Suzlon’s growth in India. Additionally, Karnataka has emerged as our largest market by orderbook with over 2 GW orders from our existing orderbook, making it a top priority market for us alongside Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan and Maharashtra. The strong growth is driven by rising demand from the large commercial and industrial (C&I) segment, where wind is increasingly preferred for RTC solutions.”
Shashank Sharma, CEO, Sunsure Energy said, “The next generation of clean energy infrastructure will not be the one that works when the sun shines or the wind blows – it will be defined by its ability to deliver power when India needs it the most. At Sunsure Energy, we are pioneering this next generation of renewable energy infrastructure by building reliable, round-the-clock renewable power solutions that will power and decarbonize India’s industries, emerging AI and data centre demand, electric mobility, and the broader deep electrification of the economy. As we rapidly scale our RTC portfolio, partnering with Suzlon for wind energy was a natural choice, given their proven track record of reliably executing large-scale projects. Backed by their advanced technology platform and strong lifecycle O&M capabilities, we believe this partnership will play a pivotal role in accelerating the growth of our renewable energy portfolio and shaping India’s clean energy future.”
Ajay Kapur, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, said, “We have built close to 300 MW of partnership with Sunsure Energy, driven by our consistent focus on quality, execution, and lifecycle support, which makes us a dependable partner for large and critical projects. This repeat order reflects the trust placed in our capabilities.”
