Delta Electronics signs wind power deal for Tamil Nadu facilities

Delta Electronics India has signed a 12-year power purchase agreement (PPA) to source wind power for its operations in Tamil Nadu. The deal covers 9.6 million units of wind-generated electricity annually.

Ventus Energy Consultancy Private Limited facilitated the PPA. Power will be routed through Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO). Wind energy will be supplied from farms in Tirunelveli, Tuticorin, and Tiruppur.

This move is expected to reduce Delta’s carbon emissions by nearly 6,979 metric tonnes each year.

Founded in 1971, Delta Electronics provides power and thermal management solutions globally. The company runs 55 manufacturing sites and 73 R&D centres, employing over 81,000 people. It also plans to increase renewable energy sourcing across other Indian sites.
