Suzlon Energy share price rose sharply on Friday, August 1, after the company announced a major 381 MW wind energy order from Zelestra India.
This marks a key development in India’s renewable energy sector, as the project supports firm, reliable, and scalable clean power solutions across three states.
On August 1, 2025, Suzlon Group, India’s No. 1 wind solutions provider, officially announced that it has secured a 381 MW order from Zelestra India and its affiliates. This significant collaboration marks Zelestra’s first-ever FDRE (Firm, Reliable, and Scalable Renewable Energy) project, signifying a crucial strategic milestone in their journey towards clean energy. The project is seen as a landmark partnership that signals India’s shift toward a more reliable and scalable renewable energy landscape.
The 381 MW project will involve the supply of 127 of Suzlon’s S144 Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs), each boasting a rated capacity of 3 MW. This order further solidifies Suzlon’s position, with their S144 orderbook now standing at approximately 91%. The extensive project will be executed across three states in India: Maharashtra, where 180 MW will be developed, Madhya Pradesh, also receiving 180 MW, and Tamil Nadu, with a 21 MW component. The portions of the project in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh are part of SJVN’s FDRE bid, while the Tamil Nadu portion is specifically designed to serve Commercial & Industrial (C&I) power consumers.
As of March 31, 2025, the company reported that it has received the highest-ever domestic order book of 5.6 GW.
India’s energy transition is accelerating, with firm renewable power (FDRE) gaining momentum. Zelestra, a global decarbonisation leader, has partnered with Suzlon to support this shift. Suzlon’s integrated capabilities—from technology and manufacturing to execution and maintenance—enable large-scale, reliable renewable projects. This collaboration advances Zelestra’s 5 GW portfolio of co-located hybrid projects, set for rollout in 2027–2028.
