Places 70 MW wind turbine order with Inox

Adani Enterprises has marked its entry into the wind energy segment by placing the company’s first order for wind turbine generators with Inox Wind Ltd.

The order is for supply of 70 MW wind turbine generators to Adani Green Energy Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Adani Enterprises Ltd.

The Adani Group’s maiden foray into the wind energy segment encompasses a 50-MW turnkey project to be set up at Anantapur district in Andhra Pradesh and a 20-MW turnkey project at Inox Wind’s Lahori site in Madhya Pradesh.

As part of these two turnkey orders, Inox Wind will deliver, install, and commission 35 units of 100 rotor diameter turbines. It has also been contracted to undertake operations and maintenance services of the projects for a multi-year period, post commissioning.

Inox Wind provides end-to-end solutions, including wind resource assessment, acquiring land, developing the entire site infrastructure, building power evacuation system, supplying wind turbine generators (WTGs), erection and commissioning services, long-term operations and maintenance services as well as post-commissioning support.

“These are the first orders placed by Adani in the wind power space and reaffirm customers’ faith in Inox’s ability to provide world-class technological solutions to its clients,” Kailash Tarachandani, Chief Executive Officer of Inox Wind Ltd, said in his statement.
