Suzlon looks to buy all of REpower

Indian wind turbine maker Suzlon Energy is in talks to buy the remaining nine percent stake in German unit REpower Systems AG, its chief financial officer said.

Banerjee said Suzlon would like to grow its revenue from China by 40 to 50 percent, driven by strong demand for renewable energy.
