Suzlon Group, India’s leading provider of renewable wind energy solutions, has announced a significant 381 MW order from Zelestra India and its affiliates. This marks a major step in Zelestra’s clean energy plans, with the project being its first foray into the Feed-in Tariff Determined Renewable Energy (FDRE) segment.
The large-scale wind energy project will see the installation of 127 units of Suzlon’s advanced S144 wind turbines, each with a rated capacity of 3 MW. The turbines will be deployed across three Indian states—Maharashtra (180 MW), Madhya Pradesh (180 MW), and Tamil Nadu (21 MW).
This project is part of SJVN’s FDRE bid for Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, while the Tamil Nadu portion will supply power to Commercial and Industrial (C&I) consumers. The order significantly boosts Suzlon’s S144 turbine order book, which now stands at approximately 91% of its current capacity.
Suzlon brings end-to-end expertise to the table, offering everything from cutting-edge turbine technology to 25 years of lifecycle management. The collaboration reflects an industry-wide shift toward sustainable energy, with newer players like Zelestra choosing Suzlon for reliable, scalable, and fast deployment of renewable infrastructure.
As more corporates and utilities move toward decarbonization goals, this deal underlines Suzlon’s growing role as a go-to partner in India’s clean energy transition.
