Adani Wind Launches 5 MW Turbine as India Advances Wind Energy Capacity
Adani Wind has commissioned a 5 MW wind turbine prototype in Gujarat, enhancing India's wind energy capabilities. This shift to higher-capacity turbines is crucial for maximizing energy output and optimizing land use in the country's wind corridors.

Adani Wind has launched a 5 MW turbine prototype at Mundra, Gujarat, featuring a rotor diameter of 185 meters and a blade length of 91.2 meters. This model is part of India's strategy to utilize larger turbines to enhance power generation efficiency and project economics.
The country currently has 15 approved wind turbine manufacturers, with Adani Wind's existing models already listed under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy's Approved List. India's wind manufacturing capacity has surged from 12 GW in 2022 to nearly 20 GW, positioning it as a significant player in the global clean energy market.
The new turbine reflects a broader trend towards advanced manufacturing, with plans to expand Adani Wind's capacity to 5 GW annually. This development aligns with India's goal of reaching a cumulative wind capacity exceeding 1,100 GW, potentially fulfilling 10% of global demand by 2030.
