Suzlon To Launch DevCo Signalling Shift Beyond Wind

28 Feb 2026 CW Team

Suzlon Energy is launching a development company, DevCo, as part of a strategic shift to expand beyond wind power into solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS). The new entity is intended to focus on project development and asset creation across renewable technologies and is positioned to attract investors and partners. The move reflects a broadening of focus from turbine manufacturing to integrated renewable project delivery.

Suzlon will draw on its existing engineering experience and supply chain relationships to underpin the development pipeline. The company expects DevCo to enable co-development of solar parks alongside wind sites and to explore hybrid projects combining generation and storage. Management views the structure as a way to segregate project risk and to create clearer value for stakeholders. The platform aims to standardise contracts and to reduce time to commercial operation at scale.

The initiative comes as developers across the country seek to pair variable generation with storage to improve grid integration and to capture merchant revenue. By establishing a separate development vehicle, Suzlon intends to accelerate permitting and financing processes and to present investable assets to institutional backers. The DevCo model may also facilitate joint ventures and third-party capital participation without altering the core manufacturing operations.

The step signals a wider industry trend towards integrated renewable solutions as developers adapt to shifting policy and market signals. Suzlon is expected to leverage its technical capabilities and to bid for projects that combine wind, solar and storage components. Observers note that clearer asset separation can help realise value and that execution will depend on regulatory clarity and financing cost. The company will proceed with registrations and stakeholder consultations as it readies the new vehicle for deployment.
