Adani Wind Unveils India’s Largest 5 MW Wind Turbine at Mundra

In a groundbreaking advancement for India's renewable energy sector, Adani Wind has unveiled a 5-megawatt (MW) wind turbine prototype at Mundra, Gujarat. This initiative marks a critical step in India's transition to higher-capacity wind technologies, featuring a 185-meter rotor diameter and 91.2-meter blades, placing it among India's largest.

The development aligns with India's accelerated shift towards bigger and more efficient turbines to meet increasing clean energy demands. Larger-capacity machines boost power generation per installation, enhancing project viability across wind corridors. Currently, India boasts 15 approved wind turbine manufacturers, with Adani Wind's new model awaiting certification.

India's prominence in the global wind energy market is rising. BloombergNEF reports record installations of 169 GW globally in 2025, with India a leading market outside China. Adani Wind, the only Indian firm in Bloomberg's Top 15, highlights the country's growing wind capacity of 55 GW and untapped potential over 1,100 GW.

The Mundra prototype reflects Adani Wind's ambitious manufacturing strategy. The company plans to expand production capacity from 2.25 GW to 5 GW annually, aiming for 10 GW long-term. It is also preparing for exports to markets including the US, Australia, Brazil, and Southeast Asia, with German collaboration enhancing this state-of-the-art solution.

As India cements its status as a clean energy leader, the new turbine's commission illustrates the nation's commitment to advanced technology, domestic manufacturing, and sustainable growth.
