Abstract
In this work, the relationship between various wind turbine parameters is investigated utilising wind resource data measured at an 80 m measurement mast. Turbine Performance Index (TPI), wind turbulence and direction are investigated to ensure favourable conditions for turbine installation. Economic analysis is performed with reference to the latest Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) registered projects. The life cycle cost and cost of generation for a prospective wind farm are 2691 million INR and 2.97 INR/kWh, respectively. Finally, using five years of NASA MERRA-2 reanalysis data for twelve locations, Weibull parameters and wind power density (WPD) at 50, 80, 120 and 150 m heights are obtained. The installed capacity is 264 MW for selected locations. Energy capture and emission reduction estimates are also computed for all the locations where the highest values of 122 million kWh and 100057 tonnes of CO2 are obtained for Paradeep.
