Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (BPCL), a state-run oil company, has awarded contracts for wind energy projects totalling 100 megawatts (MW). The projects have been given to Suzlon Energy Ltd and Integrum Energy Infrastructure Ltd as part of BPCL’s goal to move towards green energy.
BPCL shared the update on its official handle on “X” (formerly Twitter). According to the post, two wind farm projects of 50 MW each have been awarded—one in Madhya Pradesh and the other in Maharashtra. Suzlon Energy will handle the Madhya Pradesh project, while Integrum Energy Infra will manage the Maharashtra project.
The electricity generated from these wind farms will be used for BPCL’s Bina and Mumbai refineries. This move will help reduce the company’s dependence on fossil fuels and support its shift to clean, renewable energy sources.
These projects are part of BPCL’s bigger plan to develop a 10-gigawatt (GW) renewable energy portfolio by 2040. BPCL also aims to become a net zero energy company for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by the same year.
This order adds to Suzlon’s recent success. Just last month, Suzlon received its largest-ever order of 378 MW from NTPC Green Energy, strengthening its position in the renewable energy sector.
Following the announcement, shares of Suzlon Energy rose by 2.2% to ₹55, while BPCL’s shares ended the day 1.9% higher at ₹317.3, touching the day’s highs.
With these new wind energy projects, BPCL is taking meaningful steps toward reducing carbon emissions and supporting India’s clean energy future. The move also highlights the growing momentum in the renewable energy sector.
