3. INTRODUCTION:
Wind power or wind energy is the
use of wind to provide mechanical
power through wind turbines to turn
electric generators for electrical
power.
In recent years, wind energy has
become one of the most economical
renewable energy technology.
Today, electricity generating wind
turbines employ proven and tested
technology, and provide a secure and
sustainable energy supply.

4. FUTURE OF WIND
ENERGY:
Demand for energy is bound to increase with the
increased economic development in the country.
 It is expected to grow at faster pace in the times to
come as Government of India is stressing upon "Make
in India", "Ease of Doing Business" and "Digital India"
predominantly besides land and labour reforms.
 It will further push the demand of electricity in
almost all the sectors i.e. household, agriculture,
commercial, institutional and industrial sector.

5. WHY RENEWABLE
ENERGY?
The International Renewable Energy Agency
(Irena) revealed that increasing Wind and Solar
power sources to 36 percent would bring the
goal of reducing greenhouse gases significantly
closer(Gifford, 2016).
As Solar and wind energy can play a vital role in
supplying clean and green energy.
 Present paper tries to find out the role wind
energy can play in the generation mix of power
sector in India.
It tries to estimate the total production of wind
energy by 2050 in India.

6. FACTORS IN FAVOUR WIND ENERGY IN
INDIA:

7. WIND ENERGY
POTENTIALS OF INDIA?
The National Institute of Wind Energy, formerly the Centre of
Wind Energy Technology, recently announced that the total
onshore wind energy potential in the country is 302 GW
(determined at a hub height of 100 meters).
The fresh estimates are six-times the wind energy potential
determined at a 50 meter hub height, and three-times the
potential estimated at a hub height of 80 meters.
Of the total estimated 302 GW potential, 153 GW is available in
wasteland, 146 GW in cultivable land, and 3 GW in forest land.

8. TIMELINE OF SIZE AND OF CAPACITY OF WIND TURBINES:
1990 TO2020 TURBINES SIZE CHAT.

9. BASIC ASSUMPTION FOR ESTIMATING
THE FUTURE OF WIND ENERGY IN INDIA:
Past experience shows that size and wind turbine capacity is
doubling every five years and with the increased hub heights it
may slightly slows down but keep on increasing with steady
pace. We can expect wind turbine of 20MW by 2030 and
40MW by 2040 and 60MW by 2048.
Average life-cycle for Technology is assumed to be 15 years and
gradual shift in technology is assumed.
25 years of average life of a wind turbine is assumed hence
total installed capacity is adjusted for decommissioning of old
turbines.

10. CONCLUSION:
Wind energy has bright future and we can
expect 30% contribution of wind energy in
the total generation mix of electricity in
India by 2050.
 Though wind energy has its own negatives
like noise and loss of birds life yet
concentrating on off-shore potentials
development and development of bladeless
windmills that are having no visibly moving
parts and reduced noise will solve these
problems in coming decades.
