Description

In Karnataka state of India, a project has been implemented to generate electrical energy through sustainable means using wind power resources. The project has installed 10 wind turbine generators (WTGs) with a total capacity of 13.75 MW. The 5 Suzlon make S 82 WTGs have a generating capacity of 1500 kW each, while the other 5 Suzlon make S 64 WTGs have a generating capacity of 1250 kW each. These WTGs are located in the Davangere district of Karnataka state and are contributing partially to the electricity provided by Karnataka Power Transmission Company Limited (KPTCL). Key Highlights: - The project has installed 10 wind turbine generators with a total capacity of 13.75 MW in Karnataka state of India. - The WTGs are of two types - 5 Suzlon make S 82 WTGs with a generating capacity of 1500 kW each and 5 Suzlon make S 64 WTGs with a generating capacity of 1250 kW each. - The main purpose of the project is to generate electrical energy through sustainable means using wind power resources and to contribute to climate change mitigation efforts. - The renewable energy produced by the project is partially contributing to the electricity provided by Karnataka Power Transmission Company Limited (KPTCL). This project is important because it is contributing to the production of clean energy from a renewable source. The project has reduced the reliance on non-renewable sources of energy and is helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. The installation of the wind turbine generators has also created job opportunities and contributed to the economic growth of the region. Through this project, Karnataka state is setting an example for other regions around the world to follow in the adoption of sustainable energy practices.
