Abstract

India is blessed with immense renewable energy resources in general and wind energy resources in particular. Evaluating the potential of wind energy resources in changing the energy scenario in the country is vital for development of wind turbine installations in near future. About 34605 MW capacity wind power plants are installed so far as up to September 2018. In the wind energy conversion/utilization, India stands on fourth position in the world. This paper presents the status and development of wind energy in India. This paper discusses the challenges and opportunities in the development of wind energy in the country and also different approaches to increase and expand the utilization of wind resources.
