Reaches 4.5GW milestone in delivering generators

Among the largest generator manufacturers for wind turbines, ABB has surpassed the 4.5GW mark with the delivery of over 2,000 units of wind power generators in the country. This is part of ABB's next level strategy of driving the energy revolution with market focused technologies.

These generators for wind turbines are manufactured in a factory in city of Vadodara Gujarat, recognized as ABB's one of the most advanced facility globally and the fourth such facility in the group. The factory has been awarded by India Wind Energy Forum (IWEF) 2016, and earlier by CII for its quality and manufacturing excellence. Established in 2010 to cater to future demand with indigenized offerings, it can manufacture wind power generators of ratings up to 3 MW.

"We are among the largest manufacturers of wind generators in the country and are privileged to partner the growth of the Indian wind sector, which currently is the fourth largest in the world," said Sanjeev Sharma, CEO and Managing Director, ABB India. "The state of the art portfolio made in India provides a reliable system, which can guarantee continuous operation, maximum production of energy with the lowest lifetime cost. As the price gap narrows between electricity generated from thermal, solar and wind projects, quality solutions to optimize and integrate wind projects assume paramount importance to create long term value," he added.
