RRB Energy Ltd., Vestas Wind Systems A/S’s former joint-venture partner in India, expects as much as 25 percent of sales next year to come from exports of smaller turbines to emerging markets led by Africa.

The New Delhi-registered manufacturer, one of the earliest to enter India’s wind power market in 1987, says it’s bucking an industry trend toward larger turbines and has restarted production of a 225-kilowatt machine discontinued in 2005.
