Inox Wind To Invest Rs 4 Billion In New Karnataka Plant

Inox Wind, one of India’s leading wind turbine manufacturers, has announced an investment of Rs 4 billion to establish a new manufacturing facility at the Kyadigoppa Industrial Area in Kushtagi taluk, Koppal district, Karnataka.

The project will be developed in two phases and is expected to generate around 1,000 direct employment opportunities, reinforcing Karnataka’s growing prominence as a renewable energy manufacturing hub.

According to M.B. Patil, Karnataka’s Minister for Large and Medium Industries, land under the Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board (KIADB) has already been allotted for the project. Of the total investment, Rs 3 billion will be utilised in the first phase, followed by Rs 1 billion in the second phase.

The facility will be strategically located within an industrial zone dedicated to supporting large-scale renewable energy manufacturing. It will produce critical wind turbine components, including towers, blades, and pillars, catering to India’s expanding wind power market.

Inox Wind had initially considered Vijayapura district for the project. However, the proposal was shifted to Koppal after suitable land near a national highway could not be identified in Vijayapura. The new site’s better logistical accessibility—particularly for transporting oversized turbine components—was a decisive factor in the relocation.

The move strengthens Karnataka’s position as a wind energy leader. As of June this year, the state had added 1,331.48 MW of new wind capacity, bringing its cumulative installed base to over 7,350 MW, the highest in India.

Looking ahead, Karnataka plans to implement 17 GW of new wind projects by 2030, with more than 5 GW to be developed under the Renewable Energy Cluster Programme.
