Gujarat Overtakes Tamil Nadu in Wind Energy Installation
Gujarat has surpassed
Tamil Nadu as the leading state in installed wind energy capacity in India.
With an installed capacity of 10,415 MW, Gujarat has taken the top spot, while
Tamil Nadu, which held the position for four decades, has a capacity of over
10,100 MW. Experts suggest that Tamil Nadu can regain its position through key
policy interventions. India plans to add 58 GW of wind energy capacity in the
next seven years, requiring an investment of over 4 lakh crore. The current
cumulative installed capacity of onshore wind energy in India is 42.8 GW across
nine states.
