Over the past few years, the UK has been working closely on redesigning its future transmission network infrastructure, to significantly step up offshore wind integration. Innovative thinking in network design has become imperative to achieve […]
Distributed wind energy systems refer to distributed or decentralised wind turbines that are installed to meet the energy demand for a specific consumer, or to meet local loads. These installations may be off-grid or connected […]
India has 41 GW of installed wind power capacity, which requires effective operations and maintenance (O&M) for maximum energy generation, reduced opex costs and enhanced equipment life. As asset size and scale are increasing, the […]
By D.V. Giri, Secretary General, Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association India has a wind turbine manufacturing base of 15 GW per annum, with localisation of over 70 per cent and supported by over 4,000 component […]
A wind turbine looks rather simple in appearance. However, it has several complex components that cumulatively build and support its overall functioning. A drivetrain is one such component, which converts mechanical energy into electricity. It […]
Wind energy technology has undergone a sea change over the years. Turbine capacities have shifted from kW to MW with improved efficiency parameters. The technology is constantly evolving towards improved reliability, increased capacity factors, and […]
The central government’s announcement of a 37 GW bidding trajectory for offshore wind power up to 2029-30 could be a potential game changer for the segment. In line with this, the Ministry of New and […]
As per the Global Wind Energy Council, a total of 93.6 GW of wind turbine capacity was deployed in the world in 2021, bringing the cumulative global wind energy capacity to 837 GW. Over half […]
India has achieved a cumulative installed renewable energy capacity of 106.37 GW as of March 31, 2022. Of this, wind energy accounts for about 40.12 GW, contributing to 37 per cent of the total renewable […]
Offshore wind has the potential to play a significant role in India’s energy transition. As compared to onshore wind installations, offshore wind farms are more effective in generating power due to stronger and more consistent […]
Rapid development of the wind power sector and local value creation in the supply chain are opportunities for promoting economic growth and mitigating climate change. Since early 2020, India has committed at least $150 billion to […]
The Indian wind power segment is more than three decades old, with 40 GW of capacity installations as of January 2022. Despite having mature technology, this segment has been overtaken by the solar power segment, […]
Wind power deployment began in India more than three decades back to cross 40 GW of installed capacity today. A significant chunk of this capacity is based on old wind turbine technology of low capacity. […]
The installed wind power capacity reached 39.99 GW as of October 31, 2021, around 20 GW short of the 60 GW target for 2022. The leading states for installed wind capacity are Tamil Nadu (9,846.69 […]
The power sector landscape has evolved significantly over the last decade and is no longer limited to generation, transmission and distribution. With power being increasingly interconnected with transport and buildings, and the greater penetration of […]
With the world rapidly moving towards net zero emissions and meeting global climate commitments, the renewable energy sector is witnessing tremendous growth. The year 2021 is expected to witness the fastest year-on-year growth in renewable […]
Technological advancements have given rise to automation and digitalisation of operations across all sectors. The renewable energy sector is no exception. The role of automation and digitalisation has been particularly well adapted in the wind […]
Wind power deployment is growing rapidly across the world, aided by the climate action commitments and energy mix diversification strategies of various countries. Two types of wind turbines are the primary focus of innovation efforts […]
Wind turbines are powerful structures with the capability to convert strong winds into electricity, to power households and industries. Although the structure of a turbine may look simple from the outside, it houses a powerful […]
The drivetrain is often called the “powerhouse” of a wind turbine as it contains a generator and a gearbox. These appliances convert the torque generated from the rotation of the wind turbine blades into electricity. […]
