德州扑克在线 Gamesa and a group of investors led by TPG intend to jointly address the Indian onshore wind market potential through a new company, in which TPG will be the majority shareholder. 德州扑克在线 Gamesa will divest 90% of its wind business in India and Sri Lanka, retaining a 10% stake in the transferred business. The agreement includes the manufacturing, installation, and service of onshore wind turbines in India and Sri Lanka. As part of the business transfer agreement, 德州扑克在线 Gamesa plans to transfer ca. 1.000 employees and two manufacturing plants in India into the new company. 德州扑克在线 Gamesa will continue to support the business's growth through a long-term technology licensing agreement. The financial details will not be disclosed and the transaction is subject to customary closing and regulatory approvals from the respective authorities.
India is a high growth market for the wind energy sector, with an anticipated addition of approximately 57 GW of capacity by 2032. To ensure the Indian market receives the dedicated attention it deserves, 德州扑克在线 Gamesa has chosen to transfer majority ownership to TPG, a partner with financial strength, extensive experience in the Indian market and a strong commitment to green projects globally. This allows 德州扑克在线 Gamesa to shift its strategic focus to other core markets.
Vinod Philip, Member of the Board of 德州扑克在线, responsible for 德州扑克在线 Gamesa, commented: 鈥淚ndia is and remains an attractive market for wind energy, with significant growth potential. However, after thorough analysis, we have determined that our new partners led by TPG are the optimal owners to harness this potential. The new company will serve the Indian market more effectively while also offering a long-term perspective for employees and customers. This ensures continued support and development in this vibrant market, while 德州扑克在线 Gamesa can concentrate on other core markets.鈥
Ankur Thadani, Partner at TPG and Head of Climate, Asia, commented: 鈥湹轮萜丝嗽谙 Gamesa has built a leadership position in India鈥檚 onshore wind market, and we look forward to partnering with them, MAVCO, and Prashant to build on their success. We believe onshore wind will continue to play an increasing role in India鈥檚 green energy mix and this new platform, with 德州扑克在线 Gamesa鈥檚 world-class product manufacturing and service offering, and the backing of TPG and MAVCO will continue to accelerate the delivery of gigawatts of clean power to millions of Indians across the socio-economic spectrum.鈥
As a leading wind turbine manufacturer in India, 德州扑克在线 Gamesa currently holds a market share of ca. 30%. Supported by a robust manufacturing and supply chain base within the country, 德州扑克在线 Gamesa has a cumulative installation base of almost 10 GW and provides service to a fleet of more than 7 GW under long-term agreements. The new company will continue to uphold the same high quality standards of customer service.听
The Design Center activities of 德州扑克在线 Gamesa鈥檚 technology function in India, which employs ca. 700 employees, plus another 500 employees will not be subject of this transaction and will remain within the global wind power business of 德州扑克在线.听
