Suzlon, Jindal Renewables Ink 400 MW Captive Wind Power Deal

Wind energy company Suzlon is set to harness the power of wind energy to decarbonize hard to abate steel sectors. The Pune-based company aims to harness the power of wind through its new 400 MW order from JSP Green Wind 1 Pvt. Ltd. (Special Purpose Vehicle – SPV of Jindal Renewables Power Private Limited).

This order takes Suzlon’s cumulative order book to nearly at 5.4 GW. Under the new order, Suzlon is expected to supply 127 wind turbine generators (WTGs) with Hybrid Lattice Tubular (HLT) towers, each having a rated capacity of 3.15 MW in the Koppal region of Karnataka. The power generated from the project will be used for captive consumption in Steel Plants in Chhattisgarh and Odisha, thereby, boosting their operational sustainability while advancing India’s green energy goals.

Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, said, “We are proud to partner with the Jindal Group in a bold step towards a low‐carbon future, leveraging wind power to  revolutionise steel production. This groundbreaking collaboration not only redefines industrial sustainability but also aligns with India’s 2070 net‐zero vision. Together, we are setting a new benchmark for sustainable practices that foster growth while safeguarding the planet.”
