Additionally, Suzlon will provide comprehensive operations and maintenance services, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman of the Suzlon Group, expressed pride in the partnership, stating, “We are honoured to be a strategic partner in NTPC’s ambitious vision to accelerate India’s clean energy transition. As NGEL aims to expand its renewable portfolio to 60 GW by 2032, this partnership showcases the key role of wind in powering India’s largest public sector utility’s journey. From our first project in Gujarat to our expansion into Karnataka, our shared vision continues to advance India’s leadership in the global clean energy movement.”

JP Chalasani, Chief Executive Officer of the Suzlon Group, echoed the sentiment, highlighting that securing major, high-quality projects in the public sector is central to Suzlon’s growth strategy. “Our continued engagement with NGEL is a reflection of our ability to deliver reliable, scalable wind energy solutions while contributing meaningfully to India’s energy transition. This partnership strengthens our position as a trusted partner in the country’s renewable energy journey,” he said.
