The giant player in the energy sector Suzlon has tied-up with Chennai-based Coromandel Wind Energy Limited (CWE). Suzlon, India’s largest wind turbine manufacturer, will be involved in a project of 36 units of Suzlon’s new S97-2.1 MW wind turbine generators, which will be commissioned in the fiscal year 2012-13.
Under this agreement, Suzlon will set up, operate and maintain a 75.6 MW wind power project for Coromandel Wind Energy in Rajasthan. The deal is valued at nearly Rs470 crore. CWE is established by a team of highly successful Indian and international promoters.

The company plans to list on a recognised exchange either in India or London at the appropriate time and is expected to achieve a market capitalisation in excess of $250 million by 2014.”
