Suzlon Group has bagged an order from Adani Green Energy to develop a 48.3MW wind farm in Mandvi, Kutch district, Gujarat.

As per the contract, Suzlon Group will supply and install 23 wind turbine generators (WTGs) with a hybrid lattice tubular (HLT) tower. Each of the turbines of the Mandvi wind farm in Gujarat will have capacity of 2.1MW.

Ashwani Kumar —  Suzlon Group CEO said “We believe that Suzlon is an evident choice for our stakeholders and customers because our products are customized for a variety of Indian wind regimes backed by our service offerings.
