Suzlon Energy — India’s largest wind-energy solutions company — recently unveiled what it claims is the world’s tallest hybrid wind turbine.

The 2.1MW turbine sits on top of a 120m tower made of concrete and steel; it could help to establish a 300MW offshore wind energy project announced by the company some time ago in the western state of Gujarat, which has the third-largest installed wind energy capacity in India.

Suzlon Energy is also working on a large wind park in the state; it currently has an operational capacity of 1.1GW, although the company plans to increase the capacity of the park to 2GW, making it the largest wind park in Asia.

It expects that India will add about 3–3.5GW of wind energy capacity annually over the next few years. It has recently received several big orders to provide integrated services for wind projects across the country.
