The 4.2MW Assjo project, located 150km from Goteborg and Stockholm, will be delivered by the company through a contract that covers engineering, procurement and construction.

The project will be sold to Svensk Vindkorporativ Ek Forening (SVEF), a local wind power corporative. Suzlon will also sign service and maintenance partnership agreement with Triventus Energiteknik, a subsidiary of Triventus, which will be applicable to future Suzlon projects in Sweden as well to ensure fast turnaround time and flexible service.

Erik Pedersen, CEO of Suzlon, said: “This is our first step into the exciting and promising Swedish wind market. We are very happy to take this step in partnership with Triventus laying the foundation for a strong future. We believe this is an example of our commitment and capabilities that allow us to create solutions that are optimized to the market conditions and our customer’s needs.”

Gert Holst, managing director of Triventus, said: “The project called for flexible wind turbine suppliers with an open profile towards operations and maintenance system and technology and Suzlon has worked very hard to meet our needs perfectly. We are confident of their products and services, and look forward to a mutually rewarding relationship in the long term.”
