KP Group has become the first company in India to install the Make in India 4.2 MW wind turbine generator (4.2M160) manufactured by Senvion India, marking a significant milestone in the adoption of next-generation wind energy technology under India’s renewable energy transition framework. The installation has been carried out in South Gujarat and represents a key advancement in high-capacity wind power deployment in the country.
The turbine is part of Senvion India’s advanced 4XM platform and is specifically engineered for Indian wind conditions and site requirements. With a rated capacity of 4.2 MW, a 160-metre rotor diameter, and a 140-metre hub height, the 4.2M160 is designed to maximize energy capture in low-to-medium wind regimes. Its larger swept area, advanced control systems, and site-optimized engineering enable higher generation output, improved efficiency, and enhanced long-term energy yield.

The 4XM platform features a modular architecture that enables efficient transportation, faster installation, and streamlined commissioning. It also enhances serviceability and operational reliability, making it suitable for large-scale renewable energy projects. The turbine has been developed with more than 85% localization and has been included in the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM), reflecting India’s push toward domestic manufacturing in the renewable energy sector.
Commenting on the development, Dr. Faruk G. Patel, Chairman and Managing Director of KP Group said, “Being the first to install the Make in India 4.2 MW M160 wind turbine in South Gujarat reinforces KP Group’s commitment to adopting advanced, next-generation technologies that enhance generation efficiency, optimize lifecycle performance, and deliver long-term value. This milestone further strengthens our position as a trusted partner in executing scalable and high-performance renewable energy solutions, while contributing meaningfully to India9s transition towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.”
