Suzlon bags wind energy project from GSPL

Wind turbine manufacturer Suzlon Energy has bagged a contract from Gujarat State Petronet Ltd (GSPL) for setting up a 52.5-MW wind energy project in Gujarat. The company would set up, operate and maintain GSPL’s 52.5-MW wind energy project in Rajkot and Porbandar.

As part of the contract, the company would supply 35 units of Suzlon S82-1.5-MW wind turbine generators that would generate 52.5 MW of power. The project is scheduled to be completed and commissioned by July 2010. The company, however, has not disclosed financial details of the project.

GSPL is a leading player in developing energy transportation infrastructure in Gujarat and this repeat order, after the successful execution of the first project for the parent company GSPCL, is an endorsement of the customer’s trust in Suzlon’s technology, services and capabilities.
