Mumbai: Suzlon Energy announced on Monday it has secured a 105 MW order from Sunsure Energy for its new S175 (5.0 MW) wind turbine. This order represents the first commercial deployment of Suzlon's S175 turbine, launched two weeks prior.
Project Details
Suzlon will supply 21 S175 wind turbine generators (WTGs) for the project. These turbines will be installed in Bijapur district, Karnataka.
Scope of Work
The project scope includes the supply, erection, commissioning, and maintenance of the 21 next-generation S175 WTGs.
Turbine Technology
The S175 turbine features a 175-meter rotor and a 160-meter hybrid lattice tower. According to the company, this design allows access to stronger and more stable wind regimes for higher energy yields.
Expanding Market Access
Suzlon expects the S175 to convert previously unviable sites into commercially attractive opportunities. This will expand the addressable market for wind energy.
Partnership Deepens
This is Sunsure Energy's third order with Suzlon in less than 14 months. The cumulative partnership between the two companies now totals 400.8 MW.
