Report: GWEC bets big on wind power in India

The Global Wind Energy Council, in collaboration with the Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Assocation, has released "Indian Wind Energy Outlook 2009". The report provides demand projections for the Indian wind industry under three outlook scenarios. Under the most conservative “Reference” scenario, GWEC expects India’s cumulative installed wind power capacity to touch 27.3GW by 2030. Under the “Moderate” scenario, India is likely to have 142GW of wind power. Similarly under the most ambitious “Advanced” scenario, GWEC expects India’s total installed wind power capacity to touch 241.3GW by 2030.
