Suzlon Group, India’s leading wind solutions provider, has secured a 248.85 MW wind energy order from the ArcelorMittal Group through its renewable energy arm in India. The project forms part of a larger 550 MW hybrid renewable energy initiative in Gujarat, with Suzlon awarded the wind component to supply captive power for ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel’s operations in the country. With an installed capacity base of 4.5 GW that continues to expand, Suzlon remains the largest wind energy player in Gujarat.
The latest order marks Suzlon’s fourth major wind project supporting the decarbonization of steel production, taking its total contribution to approximately 1,156 MW of green steel capacity in India. Over the past year, the company has strengthened partnerships with leading steelmakers, reinforcing its role in accelerating the transition toward low-carbon steel manufacturing.
Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, added, “We are proud to partner with ArcelorMittal, one of the world’s most respected steel producers. Steel is the backbone of India’s infrastructure, yet it remains one of the most energy-intensive industries. As the sector accelerates its journey toward decarbonization, renewable energy has become a competitive and viable contributor. At Suzlon, we are committed to making this transition a reality through strong partnerships and industry coalitions like the Indian Steel Green Council.”
JP Chalasani, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, stated, “We welcome Arcelor Mittal as a valued partner in India’s journey towards a low carbon future. This project reflects Suzlon’s strategic focus on the EPC segment, where we aim to gradually increase its share to 50% of our overall order book. We expect EPC to drive an increasing share of our upcoming order wins.”
Amit Harlalka, Director, ArcelorMittal Sustainable Solutions India, said, “We are committed to supporting energy transition and securing supply of clean energy for our operations-a goal that demands trusted partners. With a 30-year track record and demonstrated reliability in wind energy, Suzlon stands out as our preferred partner. This partnership reflects our shared vision to accelerate green steel production and build a sustainable future for India.”
