Suzlon Group has received notice to proceed (NTP) from CLP India for a 100.8MW wind power project at Tejuva in Rajasthan.
The project will feature 48 units of Suzlon’s robust S97-2.1MW wind turbines with Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) technology.
CLP India managing director Rajiv Mishra said that the India is the fifth largest country in terms of total installed capacity of wind power.
"We have always firmly believed that accelerated development of the India power sector requires investments across all sources of renewable & conventional energy, which is critical to achieving a certain degree of energy security over a period of time," Mishra added.
"Wind portfolio has been a key area of thrust for us over the past 4-5 years, with a sustained growth of around 200 to 300 MW every year and we are committed to growing it over the next few years as well."
The project, once completed, is expected to boost CLP India’s wind power portfolio to close to 1000 MW while strengthening its position in the wind sector in India, foreign or domestic.
