Adani New Industries Limited (ANIL), the renewable manufacturing arm of the Adani Group, is set to produce India’s longest onshore wind turbine blades, measuring 91.2 metres, at its integrated facility in Mundra, Gujarat. This development marks a major advancement in domestic wind energy manufacturing and supports the country’s push for higher-capacity turbines and greater clean energy self-reliance.
The 91.2-metre blades represent a significant upgrade from the current production of 78.6-metre and 80.5-metre blades at the same Mundra plant. The longer design enables a rotor diameter of nearly 185 metres, sweeping an area of about 26,600 square metres. This larger swept area allows turbines to capture more wind energy, improving power generation efficiency especially in low- and medium-wind speed regions across India.
The new blades will be deployed on next-generation turbine platforms designed for better performance in varied wind conditions. An initial set has already been installed and tested on a prototype turbine model. Serial production is expected to begin within the current calendar year, aligning with India’s growing demand for advanced wind equipment.
The Mundra facility, which has a current blade manufacturing capacity equivalent to around 2.25 GW per year, is being scaled up to support higher output and larger components. Officials say the move strengthens India’s renewable supply chain, reduces reliance on imported blades, and boosts local capabilities in composite materials, structural engineering, and precision manufacturing.
This step fits into the broader “Make in India” effort for renewables, backed by policy incentives and the need for efficient wind projects to meet national clean energy targets. Longer blades help lower the levelised cost of energy by increasing output per turbine, making wind power more competitive in diverse geographies.
The Adani Group’s focus on domestic production also supports job creation and technology development in Gujarat, a key hub for renewable manufacturing.
