Subject has a subsidiary in Germany for technology development, an R&D facility in the Netherlands for rotor blade molding and tooling, and Wind Turbine and rotor blade manufacturing facilities in India. All this is backed up by stringent international quality control and assurance systems like ISO 9001:2000 and Type certification. 

 
The Company was incorporated in 1995 by Tulsi Tanti. Tulsi Tanti was primarily in the textile business and was introduced to wind energy through a wind power project that he had commissioned for his textile factory. The first subscribers to the Memorandum were the family members and friends of Tulsi Tanti. 

 
The Company entered into a technical collaboration agreement in 1995 with a German company, Sudwind GmbH Windkrafttanlagen to source the latest technology for the production of WTGs in India. Sudwind GmbH Windkrafttanlagen was subsequently taken over by Sudwind Energiesysteme GmbH ('Sudwind'). The parties entered into a fresh agreement dated September 30, 1996, under which Sudwind proposed to share technical know-how relating to 0.27 MW, 0.30 MW, 0.35 MW, 0.60 MW and 0.75 MW WTGs in consideration for royalty to be paid on the basis of each WTG sold over the course of five years from the date of this agreement. The Company obtained the official non-exclusive, non-transferable license for the manufacturing, marketing, dealing and servicing of APX-60 type blades from the trustee of Aerpac B.V. upon its liquidation, for consideration of Euro 200,000 vide an agreement that was entered into between the trustee of Aerpac B.V. and the Company dated June 4, 2001. This license is valid for an indefinite period. The Company entered into an agreement dated April 10, 2001 with Enron Wind Rotor Production B.V. for the acquisition of the moulds and the production line and technical support and assistance for the production of the rotor blade type APX 60-P in India for total consideration of Euro 500,000. Enron has granted these rights for the manufacturing, marketing and dealing with the products for an indefinite period. 

 
The Company introduced the concept of total solutions wherein, in addition to the supplies of equipments, the client is offered project execution work comprising land acquisition, site development, erection and commissioning, foundation and other civil work and O&M services. These services are offered in conjunction with the Associate Companies. SWSL, a subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in 1998 with the objective of providing O&M for wind power projects set up by the Company. The Company has also set up technological development centers in Germany and The Netherlands through wholly-owned subsidiaries. SEG, incorporated in 2001 and earlier known as AX 215 Verwaltungsgesellschaft mbH became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in 2002. AERT, a wholly owned subsidiary of AERH, which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in 2001 to engage in the development of technology for rotor blades, a key component of WTGs. Further, Suzlon Energy A/S, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company was incorporated in August, 2004 to supervise the international marketing activities of the Company. It is proposed that the entire non-India marketing activities of the Company shall be coordinated through Suzlon Energy A/S. SWECO, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Suzlon Energy A/S, was incorporated in 2001 to market, the WTGs manufactured by the Company in U.S.A. Further, Suzlon Energy A/S has another wholly-owned subsidiary, Suzlon Energy Australia Pty Limited, which was incorporated in 2004 to access the wind energy market in Australia. Suzlon Energy B.V. earlier known as AE-Rotor B.V., The Netherlands, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AERH, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in 2001 to market the rotor blades manufactured by the Company. Cannon Ball Wind Energy Park-I, LLC ('Cannon Ball') was incorporated as a limited liability company in July, 2002 for the purpose of setting up a wind power project in North Dakota, USA. Cannon Ball is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SWECO which is a subsidiary of Suzlon Energy A/S. Further, a representative office of the Company was also set up in China in 2003 to explore the Chinese market.   

 
Subject has taken a step further for establishing its presence in China by commencing the establishment of a wind turbine generator manufacturing facility in China through its wholly owned subsidiary Suzlon Energy (Tianjin Limited, The said manufacturing facility which is scheduled to commence its commercial operations by about Second quarter of financial year 2006-2007 would cater to the energy needs of China. 

 
The companies product range includes 0.35 MW, 0.60 MW, 0.95 MW, 1.00 MW, 1.25 MW and 2.00 MW WTGs 
 
Subject also has the distinction of introducing the concept of large wind parks in Asia and has gone on to build some of the largest wind parks in Asia including the world's largest wind park of its kind. 

 
Further, Subject's status as a force to reckon with in the wind energy industry came with the World Wind Energy Association's award for the year 2003, recognizing its contribution in disseminating wind energy worldwide.

 

BUSINESS

 

The company specializes in providing total solutions in wind power generation with cohesive integration of design, manufacturing, installation, operations and maintenance services.

 

v      In the mid-capacity segment of wind energy converters, the company offers 350 KW

 

v      In higher capacity segment the company has an entire Mega Power Series in the offerings

 

950KW      

1MW                     

1.25 MW

 

v      The company is currently developing 2 MW turbine (WEC).

 

Projects are also under progress in Karnataka and in Rajasthan.

 

Its major customers include manufacturers and end users

 

The company has collaboration with Sudwind Energiesysteme GmbH of Germany for manufacturing of wind turbine generators.

 

It ranked 9th amongst the top 10 Wind Energy Turbine Manufacturers in world and 1st in India has ambitious plans for exports of Turbines to U.S.A., China, Australia and New Zealand.

 

Subject has been accredited with ISO 9001:2000 Certification from Det Norske Veritas for manufacturing, installation, commissioning, operating and maintenance of wind mill by wind turbine generators division.

 

While the modern wind energy technology had been dominated mainly by the U.S.A. and Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, this endeavor registers a first time south-north Co-operation, and thus opening up new vistas in a highly specialized field for India. That had been achieved through continual efforts put by Subject through establishment of research and development centers in the European Union and world-class manufacturing facilities at Daman.

 

Commitment to the cause and superior performance of its Wind Turbines based on its strong R&D focus has resulted in company reaching the top few in the wind energy markets world over, in a very short period of time. Today, the company ranks among the top ten in the world. The company has to its credit the development of the World's largest wind park, of 250 MW capacity, of its kind.

 

One of the major issues in exporting wind turbine from India is with respect to high logistics costs, which offset the competitive edge of lower production costs. At this stage, the government should provide the stimuli by formulating a policy conductive for exports, as was done to boost the information technology sector.

 

The export of wind turbine was not of just a technology but a total project export. Such exports of wind turbines and financing from developed countries go hand in hand. Using the same analogy, the sector also offers bankers in India an excellent opportunity in overseas business.

 

Considering the new business opportunities in China, Australia and New Zealand, the company is in process of setting up joint ventures and subsidiaries in the near future.

 

The company offers a comprehensive range of value-added services and solutions. It ensures permanent energy yield optimization in accordance to the onsite climate and grid conditions. The detailed monitoring of several wind turbine parameters, formidable technology expertise, plus a comprehensive range of advanced systems enable it to provide the most effective and integrated level of service. The combined synergy of our business units and customer support network deliver benefits to their customers.
