Projects
The grid-interactive wind power as of March 2011 was merely 14989 MW. India stands fifth in terms of Wind energy production. Apart from central government’s initiatives, several State governments are coming up with their Renewable Energy policy that is pumping more projects. Foreign investments are also pouring into the Indian Wind Energy market. Some major MW sized solar projects in India are

Master plans
Master plans are available for 97 potential sites for wind power in Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal. The master plans provide information on the availability of wind, land, grid availability, and accessibility to the site, which enables project promoters and state nodal agencies to undertake proper planning and implementation of the projects. The master plans have been provided to the state nodal agencies and are made available to project promoters, developers, and consultants through C-WET at a nominal cost.
Wind Monitoring Stations
MNRE has established 644 Monitoring Stations across 28 states and Union Territories of which 83 are in operation. 211 Stations have indicated Wind Power Density of more than 200W/sq.m. at 50 m hub-height. List of Monitoring Stations is available here.
Automatic Solar Radiation Monitoring Systems
MNRE initiated a major project on Solar Radiation Resource Assessment to assess and quantify Solar radiation along with weather parameters to develop a solar Atlas. C-WET based in Chennai installed a network of 51 Monitoring stations across India each consisting of two towers of height 1.5m and 6m. 1.5m tower houses Pyranometer and Pyrheliometer. 6m tall tower has rainfall, temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed assessing instruments. The projects are set up in- Rajasthan (12), Gujarat (11), Tamilnadu (7), Andhra Pradesh (6), Karnataka (5), Maharashtra (3), Madhya Pradesh (3); Jammu & Kashmir, Chhattisgarh, Haryana and Pondicherry (1 each). Monthly Average data from these stations is available for the year 2011 from May to November. Click here to access Solar Radiation the data.
