Suzlon on Wednesday announced that it has expanded its partnership with JSP Green Wind 1 Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Jindal Renewables, with an additional 302.4 MW wind power project in the Koppal region of Karnataka, aimed at accelerating India’s green steel production. This, the company added, brings the total capacity from Jindal Renewables to 702.4 MW, making it Suzlon’s largest‐ever commercial and industrial (C&I) order from a single customer. Earlier last month, Suzlon had secured a 400 MW captive wind power project with Jindal Renewables in the same region.
Commercial and Industrial (C&I) customers now account for 56 per cent of Suzlon’s total order book, which stands at a record 5.4 GW.
