Indian wind turbine manufacturer Suzlon has received the RLMM (Revised List of Models & Manufacturers) Listing from MNRE (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy) listing of its S144 – 3 MW series of wind turbines. This will enable the firm to pave the way for the successful commercialization of the product.

Suzlon has already installed the first prototype of this series at a hub height of 160m with a Hybrid
Lattice Tubular (HLT) tower at the Gondal site in Gujarat. Currently the product is in the process of
serial manufacturing and commercialization. The wind turbines are extendable to 3.15 MW.

The firm has said that this achievement will enable it to make more wind sites in India economically viable to unlock the country’s true wind energy potential.

JP Chalasani, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, said, “This listing comes at the right time after our S144 product received enthusiastic response from the market, evident from the strong order inflow. Transformation toward more energy‐efficient products is driving the Indian wind energy market. It is imperative for us to offer technologically advanced products that are best suited for sites in India, ensuring a higher return on investment (ROI) for our customers. Considering India’s varied wind regimes and terrains, the S144 turbine is designed to make it customizable for the site‐specific requirements for higher PLFs (Plant Load Factor).” He added, “Our comprehensive product portfolio, led by dual star products; the proven and successful S120 – 2.1 MW and the new S144 – 3‐3.15 MW product series of larger wind turbines offer solutions for all Indian wind regimes and sites with an aim to increase generation and reduce LCoE (levelized cost of energy).”

The firm told its investors that it has already executed 1.5 GW of orderbook during the H1 of FY24 while it plans to execute orders of upto 4.5 GW by the end of the current fiscal.

Adani Wind’s 5.2 MW of wind turbines were empanelled with the MNRE in September this year.
