    The document discusses small wind power perspectives in India. It summarizes that small wind turbines range from 50 Watts to 20,000 Watts and have seen declining prices from 2007-2012. Each certified turbine must pass 2,500 hours of power performance testing. Global manufacturers achieve 70% of rated output on average during certification testing. There is growing demand for wind-solar hybrid systems. Small wind turbines can complement solar power during monsoon season when solar production is reduced. Certain locations in India are well-suited for small wind power applications.

    40% of India suitable

    Potential for Small Wind Power
    The JNNSM way
    • JNNSM Solar installation target = 20000 MW

    • 40% locations support wind power = 8000MW

    • 50% of 8000MW by wind power for energy leveling = 4000MW

    • Same investment, same infrastructure = Higher energy


    output & better ROI
    Most suitable applications and
    business models
    Rural Electrification – continue present subsidy
    Small private wind farms
    from 100KW to 500KW -
    soft loans, accelerated
    depreciation and power
    purchase scheme

    A 5KW Wind Turbine can stand on 2 meter Square area in


    a Field of Crops
    Roof Top Installations– Housing Co-op ownership
    soft loans, net metering, discount electricity rate
    Street light power - No investment on towers
    Power Utility/ DISCOM ownership
    In conclusion

    • Small wind turbines are low cost, low maintenance


    and dependable alternative energy generators which
    can be installed in short time in very little space and
    virtually without any additional infrastructure.

    • The only large investment is in the acquisition of


    wind speed data at 20M/ 30M height for the open
    lands & roof top levels across the cities of India.
    Thank you for your Patience
