SUZLON’S VISION

•To be a technology leader in the wind industry.•To be among the top three wind energy companies in the world.

•To be the most respected brand.•To be the best team and a place to work at.•To be the fastest growing and having the most profitable business.

STRATEGY Suzlon as a group aims to provide a strong renewable energy platform

thereby promising to power a greener tomorrow, today.

From initiating a wind power project, till

completion and even beyond, Suzlon

ensures that nothing stands in the way of

it serving its purpose.

PRODUCT STRATEGIES • "Suzlon delivers its complete product range in the Indian 

market." • Existing products offered by the company are:        Wind turbine generators        Rotor blades        Control Equipments        Gearboxes        Nacelle Covers

PRODUCT LINE• S82-1.5 MW This is designed for generating the optimal poweroutput even at sites with a modest wind speed regime. Thewind turbine concept is based on robust design with pitchregulated blade operation, a 3-stage gearbox with 1650 kWrating and flexible coupling to the asynchronous inductionGenerator.• S66-1.25 MW This has a well-suited ratio between rotor diameter and generator for 

most sites in a medium speed regime . The concept of the wind turbine is based on robust design with pitch regulated blade operation ,a 3-stage gearbox with 1390  KW rating.

PRODUCT LINE (contd..)• S88-2.1 MW • S64-1.25 MW• S52 -600 KW

-are other types of wind turbines manufactured for producing power each of them having  different rating and different design structure in terms of their gearboxes , blades , pitch systems etc.

PRODUCT INNOVATIONS• Suzlon  at present is manufacturing wind turbines 

for production of power. However the company can capture a larger share of market by the production of various other equipments which use other renewable source of energy.SOLAR ENERGY

eg: SOLAR CELLS AND VARIOUS

OTHER SOLAR ENERGY DEVICES

HYDAL ENERGY eg: USE OF

HYDRO WATER SYSTEMS AND

TURBINES

PRODUCT INNOVATIONS (contd..)Another recent development which is taking place these days is use of NUCLEAR ENERGY. Nuclear power is produced by controlled (i.e., non-explosive) nuclear reactions . Commercial and utility plants currently use nuclear fission reactions to heat water to produce steam, which is then used to generate electricity. In 2009, 13–14% of the world's electricity came from nuclear power.

GLOBAL COMPETITION SHARE : TOP TEN WIND TURBINE MANUFACTURE (2008)

PRICE• The wind turbines are manufactured in different sizes and shapes.

• The cost depends upon the project size, purchase agreement construction contracts, type of machines, and the projects location as well as other related factors.

•The cost includes wind resource assessment, site analysis expenses, the freight of the turbine and its price, as well as tower, construction expenses, interconnection studies, utility system upgrades, protection, transformers, as well as metering equipment, operations, warranty, maintenance, repair, insurance, legal and consultation fees, etc.

•Other factors which have an impact on pricing are financing costs, the size of the project and applicability of taxes.

PRICE (contd..)•The cost of the commercial wind turbines varied from $1 to $2 million per MW of nameplate capacity installed.

•The same turbines 2 MW in size cost roughly $2.8 million installed capacity.

•The manufacture of these turbines undergo significant economies of scale. 

•This would indicate a 10 kilowatt machine might cost roughly around $48,000. In this manner 1 kilowatts wind turbines would cost roughly $2,800 to $4,800 per kilowatt of capacity.

.

PRICING STRATEGIESThe overall pricing of the wind turbine can be summarized by :

1. proper negotiation2. considering engineering 3. other related factors and reducing over all cost

incidence on the production process.

PRICING STRATEGIES (contd..) The wind turbines

are priced high.

•IN COMPETITIVE MARKETS , STRATEGIES ARE TO BE MADE SURVIVE.METHODS MUST BE ADOPTED TO CUT COST WITHOUT EFFECTING THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT .

• CHANGE IN DESIGN IS ONE OF THE STRATEGIES TO CUT COST AND HENCE SELLING PRICE.

• USE OF SUBSTITUTE MATERIAL IS ALSO ONE OF THE STRATIGIES TO CONTROL COST.

• BY REDUCING WASTAGE. THE PRICE OF PRODUCT CAN BE BROUGHT DOWN.

(

OTHER STRATEGIES•TARIFF COST

•DISTRIBUTION COST

•MANPOWER COST

•SUPPLY CHAIN COST

•EQUIPMENT SUPPLY COST

•ADVERTISEMENT COST

NOTE : SOMETIMES BY CHANGING DESIGN OR BY USING SUBSTITUE MATERIALS , THE COST OF PRODUCT MAY INCREASE BUT THIS INCREASED COST IS COMPENSATED BY INCREASE IN LIFE OF THE PRODUCT AND THE COST PER UNIT ALSO MAY REDUCE OR COME DOWN.

Your brand consistently and repeatedly tells your prospects and customers why they should buy from us.

• Key differentiators policy for branding :

1. TURNKEY SOLUTIONS2. VERTICAL INTEGRATION3. GLOBAL INTEGRATION 4. QUALITY MANAGEMENT & HSE

VERTICAL INTEGRATION•  Foresight of the current economic challenge and

adopting a visionary strategy has set us forth to become the most vertically integrated wind turbine maker in the world.

• Suzlon has gained the critical competitive advantage with:

a) Better control over time, cost & qualityb) Long-term service support to customersc) Turbine technology integrationd) Faster product rollout
