Suzlon has secured a 105 MW wind energy order from Sunsure Energy, marking the commercial debut of its S175 (5.0 MW) platform — India's tallest and most powerful FDRE-ready wind turbine. In just two weeks after launching the S175, Suzlon has secured its first order for the next-generation turbine from Sunsure Energy. This is also Sunsure's third order with Suzlon in less than 14 months, taking the cumulative partnership to 400.8 MW.

The project scope includes the supply, erection, commissioning, and comprehensive operations & maintenance of 21 next-generation S175 wind turbine generators (WTGs) to be installed in Bijapur district, Karnataka. Powered by a 175-meter rotor and a 160-meter hybrid lattice tower, the S175 is engineered to access stronger and more stable wind regimes, enabling higher energy yields and superior project economics. It unlocks new wind frontiers by converting previously unviable sites into commercially attractive opportunities, significantly expanding the addressable market for wind energy.

Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, said, "Sunsure began their wind energy journey with us and has now grown into one of India's largest and fast-growing C&I focused renewable energy providers. We are proud to support their growth as our partnership deepens across geographies — from Karnataka to Maharashtra — and technology — from our maiden project on a 2.1 MW platform to scaling on our 3 MW platform and now the 5 MW S175."

Ajay Kapur, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, said, "Developing 400.8 MW with Sunsure Energy in a short span of 14 months reflects not only how India's C&I renewable market is scaling but also the deep trust our customers place in Suzlon's technology, execution and innovation."

Manish Mehta, Co-Founder & Chief Commercial Officer, Sunsure Energy, said, "The S175 is a precise strategic choice for us — purpose-built for firm and dispatchable power, enabling seamless integration into hybrid and round-the-clock solutions. It feeds into our ambition of being a 10 GW platform by 2030."
