Envision Energy India has secured an order of 300 MW from UPC Renewables India for supply of 60 wind turbine generators (WTG) of EN 182|5MW turbine platform.
UPC Renewables India would deploy these 5-MW high-performance smart wind turbines to upcoming projects in Karnataka.
Definitive Agreements for supply of the first 20 WTG is already completed for delivery early next year, for a contracted capacity of 100 MW that UPC Renewables has signed up with SJVN for power delivery in Jan 2027.
The 60 WTGs of EN 182|5 MW Turbine Platform will harness strong monsoonal wind patterns and favorable terrain in Bijapur, Karnataka to deliver about 900 million units of renewable energy annually, Envision Energy India said.
Suited for Indian wind regime
Envision’s EN 182|5 MW smart wind turbines are based on 182m rotor diameter, hub height of 140m and is an ideal configuration for wind and site conditions in India. This 5-MW turbine platform has a proven performance in booming markets of MENA region, Southeast Asia, and China.
The EN 182|5 MW smart wind turbine offers an enhanced Annual Energy Output (AEP) of over 40 per cent compared to the current 3.3 MW platform, delivering the lowest levelized cost of energy (LCoE). The EN 182|5 MW wind turbine platform enables optimized land use by requiring fewer land parcels, thereby reducing right-of-way acquisition challenges.
