India’s breeze energy area is driven by native breeze power industry and has shown steady advancement. The extension of the breeze business has brought about a solid biological system, project operation capacities and assembling base of around 10,000 MW per annum.
The Government is advancing breeze power projects in whole country through private area speculation by giving different monetary and monetary motivating forces, for example, Accelerated Depreciation benefit; concessional custom obligation exception on specific segments of wind electric generators..
Notwithstanding financial and different impetuses as stated above, following advances additionally have been taken to advance installation of wind limit in the country:
Technical help including wind asset evaluation and identification of likely destinations through the National Institute of Wind Energy, Chennai.
In request to facilitate between state offer of wind power, the between state transmission charges and misfortunes have been postponed off for wind and sun oriented ventures to be authorized by March, 2022.
Ben Backwell, CEO at GWEC, remarked, “Since the foundation of GWEC India in November 2020, we have taken great steps working with the nearby partners to reenergise development of India’s breeze market. With the expansion of Martand as Policy Director to our neighborhood group, we will actually want to take our work to the following level during his time of involvement driving economical turn of events and the energy change in India. We are excited to invite Martand to the GWEC India group, and utilize his skill to help India tap into its gigantic breeze power potential and accomplish net zero”.
Preceding joining GWEC India, Martand was a Fellow at TERI, where he guided the implementation of clean energy projects in India. Through his work at TERI, he has worked with foundations like the World Health Organization, the World Bank Group, the Global Network on Energy for Sustainable Development, Power Finance Corporation Limited and the Department for International Development (DFID), UK Aid, on projects that advanced maintainable turn of events and clean energy advances.

Martand Shardul, Policy Director at GWEC India, added: “India is going through a huge clean energy change which is upheld by striking responsibilities, solid policy backing, and shrewd mediations that exploit the country’s environmentally friendly power potential. I’m ecstatic to have the chance to accelerate wind power improvement in India, which is as of now perhaps the most expense serious and solid force sources in the country, and will be a critical innovation to take care of India’s developing force interest. At GWEC India, I anticipate working with every significant partner and supporting the Government of India’s endeavours to understand their objective of 140 GW of wind power limit by 2030 and drive a green recuperation.”
As GWEC India’s Policy Director, Martand will lead the neighborhood association’s commitment with the public authority and other key partners to deliver key policy bottlenecks to release the development capability of both coastal and seaward wind power in India. In May 2021, GWEC India and MEC Intelligence will together distribute the second version of the India Wind Outlook report, which will give bits of knowledge into key policy bottlenecks and freedoms to drive wind power development in the country. GWEC India will likewise coordinate the first-since forever India Wind Power on the 15-17 September 2021, which will be a critical platform to unite government, industry, and different partners to examine how proportional up wind ability to accomplish India’s climate focuses in front of the urgent COP26 meeting in November
