Suzlon Group is planning to invest around Rs 550 crore, funded through internal accruals, to set up three AI-powered blade factories to fast-track execution of its order book and meet rising demand of the domestic wind industry. Two facilities are planned in Gujarat and Karnataka, while the third will come up in Tamil Nadu. Of the investment, Rs 200 crore has been earmarked for the Tamil Nadu project; while the remaining will be utilised for Gujarat and Karnataka facilities.
The new plants will create 3,000 direct and 12,000 indirect jobs with 80 per cent rural employment. With the addition of the three units, Suzlon will have India's largest smart wind manufacturing capacity with a total of 18 factories. Suzlon already has five blade factories in Jaisalmer, Bhuj, Ratlam, Dhule and Anantapur. As of March 2026, Suzlon had an order book of around 6 GW of wind energy projects from multiple clean energy players.
Suzlon energy is the flagship company of Suzlon group, which is leader in wind energy in the India.
