Date: 22-11-2011

Suzlon’s subsidiary - REpower Systems SE concluded a turn-key contract for the delivery, construction and maintenance of six wind turbines for the La Chaude Vallee wind farm in Northern France. The wind farm is being developed by Epuron France with the support of Impax, private equity fund managers. This project will generate a total output of more than 12 megawatts (MW).

REpower Systems SE will supply six MM92 wind turbines with a hub height of 80 meters and a nominal output of 2.05 MW each for this wind farm. These will generate approximately 35,000 kilowatts-hour per annum, representing the energy consumption for approximately 14,000 households.

This project financing of around 20 million Euros (including a VAT facility), partly provided by Natixis Energeco, covers the total cost for the development and the realization of this project. A turn-key contract including the supply of the wind turbines, the construction of the infrastructure, the erection and grid connection equipments, has been signed with REpower Systems SE, committed to work with French companies for the construction.
