The revision of guidelines comes on the back of the
government's ambitious target of installing 60 Gigawatt of wind energy in the
country by 2022. At present, India has 28.1 GW of installed wind power capacity
across the country.
In a significant boost for India's clean energy growth, the
ministry of new and renewable energy (MNRE) has finally issued fresh guidelines
for onshore wind power projects after a gap of two decades. The new set of
rules promises to spur the growth of wind power capacity by addressing all the
major issues.
