Windergy India 2024 Highlights India’s Vision for a Sustainable Future

India, a global leader in wind power, currently ranks fourth in Wind Energy Installation globally and continues to witness remarkable progress in the renewable energy landscape. As of June 2024, India’s installed wind power capacity exceeds 46,656 MW, making it one of the largest producers and advocates for developing wind energy, both indigenously and globally.

The wind energy sector significantly contributes to India’s renewable energy targets and offers various socio-economic benefits. Wind farms create employment opportunities, especially in rural areas, during the construction and operation phases. Moreover, wind energy helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve energy security, and provide access to clean electricity.

With a coastline exceeding 7000 kms holding the potential to generate 500 GW of offshore wind capacity, Tamil Nadu and Gujarat have ambitious plans to contribute to the Net Zero 2070 target. Both the central and state governments actively work on the policy and regulatory framework to streamline the development process, ensure environmental sustainability, and attract investments in this sector.

Recently, the Union Cabinet approved 1 GW offshore wind energy projects in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu, with a total outlay of Rs 7,453 crore. The aim is to produce 3.72 billion units of renewable electricity annually and reduce 2.98 million tons of CO2 equivalent emissions annually for 25 years, according to the government. This decision highlights India’s commitment to building and empowering the country’s energy requirements solely on renewable and sustainable resources.

Technological advancements enable the installation of larger wind turbines with higher capacities, leading to substantial growth in the overall capacity of wind power projects across the country. The winds of change are evident, but they also need direction to unify efforts. This is where Windergy India has revolutionised the industry, marking a milestone that changed the wind energy game in the nation.

Windergy India 2024, the premier industry platform dedicated to the wind energy sector, is set to showcase its immense potential and lucrative opportunities for the sixth time, from 23-25 October 2024 at the Chennai Trade Centre, Tamil Nadu.
