The 108-MW wind power project in Tamil Nadu by Amplus Solar would use 40 onshore wind turbines, according to GE Vernova, which will provide and commission them. In a statement, GE Vernova said that Amplus Solar has chosen them as the supplier of onshore wind turbines for the company's first wind farm, which would be built in Tamil Nadu.
For this 108 MW wind power project, GE Vernova will provide and commission 40 of its 2.7-132 onshore wind turbines. With this deal, GE added more than 3 GW of orders for its 2.7 MW turbine in India, and it projected that the installed base of onshore wind in the nation would reach 5 GW by the beginning of 2024.
