Renewable energy company Suzlon has announced it has commissioned 340 MW of solar power generation projects across Telangana, Rajasthan and Maharashtra.

With the commissioning of the 340-MW generation capacity, Suzlon has completed delivery of its entire solar order book. These projects were commissioned on turnkey basis across Telangana, Rajasthan and Maharashtra.

The orders entail comprehensive operation and maintenance (O&M) services to be provided by Suzlon for 25 years

These projects were won through competitive bidding in Telangana, NTPC bid in Rajasthan and SECI bid in Maharashtra.

J.P. Chalasani, Group CEO, Suzlon Group, in a statement said: “We have delivered the entire 340 MW solar project on turnkey basis. Our focus on solar will continue to be through wind-solar hybrid projects, which will lead to better utilisation of grid, due to complementary generation profile”.

“It will also save on duplication of costs such as land and evacuation infrastructure. We have an edge due to our existing large land bank, technologically advanced products and nationwide O&M strength. With the positive change in the Indian renewable energy landscape, we are confident that the volumes will witness significant growth across all sources of clean energy. Suzlon endeavours to bring down the cost of energy and provide clean and affordable energy for all,” he said.
