Suzlon, Yanara Extend Partnership with 306 MW Wind Projects for Rajasthan FDRE Portfolio

Suzlon Group and Yanara have extended their partnership with the signing of two new wind contracts of 153 MW each for Yanara’s firm and dispatchable renewable energy (FDRE) projects in Barmer, Rajasthan. In a press release, Suzlon said the latest projects have expanded its footprint in Rajasthan, where it has installed over 2.3 GW of wind capacity, translating into a 44% market share.

In addition, Suzlon is currently executing other large engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects in the state, totalling 791 MW. Across Yanara’s two FDRE projects in Barmer, aggregating approximately 800 MWp, Suzlon will install 102 S144 wind turbine generators with hybrid lattice towers, each rated at 3 MW. The power generated will partially fulfil Yanara’s power purchase agreement (PPA) obligations with multiple utilities, including NTPC and NHPC.

Building Renewable Energy Portfolio

Yanara is developing a grid-scale portfolio of hybrid renewable energy projects that combine solar, wind, and energy storage solutions to deliver round-the-clock (RTC) clean power. The two Rajasthan projects follow closely after Yanara’s 115 MW co-located solar-wind hybrid project in Maharashtra, which is nearing completion and includes a 29.4 MW wind order from Suzlon.

Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, added, “With 30+ years of trust, Suzlon leads India’s wind energy sector, while Yanara develops hybrid projects across APAC, and our work together now spans Maharashtra to Rajasthan, highlighting our technology, solutions, and customer trust. Repeat orders like this demonstrate the strength of our partnership.”

Jerome Ortiz, Chief Executive Officer, Yanara, said, “At Yanara, we are developing pioneering projects across Asia-Pacific to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels. We are delighted to collaborate with them on our hybrid projects in India. Through such projects and partnerships, Yanara continues to embed innovation, reliability, and sustainability at the core of every development we undertake."

Naveen Khandelwal, Chief Executive Officer, India, Yanara, added, “Rajasthan is a strategic market for Yanara, with its rich wind and solar potential and supportive renewable energy project development policies. Our continued partnership with Suzlon for our utility-scale projects underscores our commitment to building a reliable multi-gigawatt clean energy portfolio across India. Together, we are advancing India’s energy transition through high-quality solutions that enable faster and deeper electrification while creating lasting value for communities and customers alike.”
