This new partnership aims to further accelerate the low CO₂ steel revolution in India. Under the new order, Suzlon will supply 65 state-of-the-art S144 wind turbine generators (WTGs) with hybrid lattice towers (HLT), each rated at a 3.15 MW capacity. The energy generated will be used for captive consumption in steel plants located in Chhattisgarh and Odisha, contributing to enhanced operational sustainability and supporting India’s green energy transition.
This order marks Suzlon’s largest Commercial & Industrial (C&I) order, with a cumulative capacity of 907.20 MW. Earlier, Suzlon secured two additional orders to power Jindal Steel’s plants in Chhattisgarh and Odisha, adding 702.45 MW of wind energy to the total capacity.
Currently, C&I customers account for 59% of Suzlon’s total order book, which has reached a record 5.9 GW—the highest in the company’s history.
