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. […]
The increasing penetration of renewables, particularly wind and solar, in the energy mix, and the decommissioning of fossil fuel power plants are together bringing about changes in the structure of electricity networks. With greater capacities […]
In 2020, the wind energy segment in India incurred huge losses owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. Apart from the pandemic, the segment faced issues such as lower energy generation due to slower wind speeds and […]
Offshore wind has fast emerged as a vital component of Europe’s strategy to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. In 2020, Europe added 2.9 GW of offshore capacity, which involved 356 new offshore wind turbines connected […]
There are many ways to maximise wind power generation at a particular site. One of the prime solutions is bigger rotors and blades, which can cover a wider area. The benefits of larger blades are […]
Due to delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Indian wind energy sector witnessed its slowest year in 2020, adding a mere 1.1 GW of capacity. Almost 2 GW of installations were either pushed to […]
Goa is the smallest state in India, which thrives on its tourism industry. The state’s sunny beaches and pleasant weather attract tourists to throng the place, which also results in a rise in power demand […]
The past decade has witnessed a massive global movement towards offshore wind farms as countries expand their renewable energy capacities to meet their power requirements. As compared to onshore wind installations, offshore wind farms get […]
By Dr S.S. Verma, Department of Physics, Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering & Technology Innovation has been driving the wind power market and its large, medium and small-scale versions. With the growing demand and awareness towards renewable […]
