New Delhi: Suzlon Group, India’s largest renewable energy solutions provider, announced today its new order win for an 81.9 MW wind energy project from Oyster Green Hybrid One Private Limited. The project, set to be developed in Agar, Madhya Pradesh, will feature the installation of 26 Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs), each with a rated capacity of 3.15 MW.
The turbines for this project will be from Suzlon’s 3 MW product series, specifically the larger rated 3.15 MW, S144-140m models. Suzlon’s scope in this venture includes the supply of wind turbines, as well as overseeing the project’s erection and commissioning. Furthermore, Suzlon will provide comprehensive operations and maintenance services following the commissioning.
Vivek Srivastava, Chief Executive Officer, India Business, Suzlon Group, said, “We are happy to announce our first order with Oyster Green Hybrid One Private Limited, an Indian Independent Power Producer (IPP) of great repute. We welcome Oyster to the Suzlon experience and thank them for trusting in our leading technology and comprehensive capabilities throughout the wind energy value chain,” he stated.
“The electricity generated from this project will target the C&I customer segment, deepening the penetration of renewable energy in India. At Suzlon, we are deeply committed to powering the industry with sustainable green energy to power their progress while meeting their net-zero ambitions.”
Srivastava also highlighted the local manufacturing aspect of the turbines. “Every Suzlon turbine is manufactured in India through a thriving domestic ecosystem, which is a testament to ‘Make in India’ and ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat,’ contributing to a greener world. This is also in line with our mission to consistently lower the cost of energy to make green power accessible and affordable for all.”
Ateesh Samant, Chief Operating Officer, Oyster Green Hybrid One Private Limited, said, “At Oyster Green Hybrid One Private Limited, we are focused on increasing our green power portfolio through Wind and Wind-Solar Hybrid projects.
