Suzlon Energy is facing complaints from their Indian customers of turbine failures resulting in losses of millions of dollars, the Wall Street Journal has reported. Companies who have complained includes Madras Cements, Essar, MSPL among others. The newspaper has quoted MSPL that each of the turbines that they had purchased from Suzlon generates only one-thirds of its rated output. Suzlon representatives have maintained that the drop in performance is only because of falling wind speeds and transmission grid problems. The newspaper has reported Suzlon's order book is under pressure as large Western turbine makers' sales backlogs are expanding and that by July, Suzlon's U.S. order backlog was down 23% from a year earlier and its India backlog was down by 15%.
