Where it's used
We know of 40 wind farms using the Suzlon S88, with 902 of its turbines in 2 countries; 40 of the farms are operating.
| Country | Farms | Turbines |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 39 | 900 |
| Sweden | 1 | 2 |
Counted where a register or the farm's own records name the model. Many countries' registers don't, so the true number is higher.
