A few natural life from now, wind farms located at sea can be churning out clean energy to feed the ravening power file in Kerala.
The Evidence for Non-conventional Verve and Sea green Gear (ANERT) is preparing to grab up a wind monitoring study to say to faculty offshore sites. The project is to be launched like the relieve of the Dutch nation.
The Netherlands has through essential improve in harnessing wind as a renewable energy source. The alight has set a absolute to earn 6,000 MW of offshore wind power by 2020, by and large from the North Sea. Happening a much-lamented dialect seized like officials in Kerala, assemblage of the Dutch nation open to work together in verdant offshore wind farms.
ANERT supervisor M. Jayaraju told The Hindu that the study would be followed by a principal project, number to a stock determination by the nation. The project, he supposed, would be launched like the critical safeguards to try out that the offshore platforms did not interrupt like fishing travels. The Ministry of New and Renewable Verve (MNRE) has recognized the Kerala-Konkan fly as one of the faculty sites for offshore wind farms in India.
Offshore wind farms are preferred seeing that of the non-availability of encumber in densely settled coastal areas like tall wind faculty. The luxury silkiness of offshore wind power is option expansion over onshore wind turbines.
ANERT is with preparing to grab up a wind-monitoring study to examination the faculty for land-based wind farms in the coastal regions of the Proclaim. The study would be carried out at four locations like the sustain of the Centre for Gust Verve Gear (C-WET), a Chennai-based self-sufficient research and scheme firm below MNRE.
C.K. Chandrabose, Meet Obscure Manager, Gust Verve project, ANERT, supposed the year-long studies would whiff concurrent, on-site specifics on the wind faculty of offshore and coastal regions in Kerala. The base specifics would be a important degree in attracting equal power producers to set up wind farms, he supposed.
ANERT is with gearing up to second the expressionless wind monitoring specifics at faculty sites on encumber. The think technically-feasible onshore wind faculty of the Proclaim is approximate to be approaching 800 MW, exclusive to 17 locations in Palakkad, Idukki, and Thiruvananthapuram, somewhere the wind glint is beyond 15 km/hr.
The main unsettled areas in the Proclaim are the eastern mountainous regions of Idukki part contiguous Tamil Nadu and the groovy areas in the Palakkad gap. Ponmudi in Thiruvananthapuram is option faculty touch.
Mr. Chandrabose supposed monitoring stations eager to whiff wind specifics at a rank of 80 metres had been installed at Kanjikode in Palakkad, Chelamala in Malappuram, and Pullikanam, Vandiperiyar and Kulathumedu in Idukki.
Meanwhile, two new wind farms, slated to start up soon at Kanjikode and Ramakkalmedu in Idukki command nurture the State's think installed capacity of wind energy. Although the farm at the Kinfra Stage set in Kanjikode command add 22 MW, the one at Ramakkalmedu because set up by NTPC command add option 20 MW to the general installed capacity of 34 MW generated by KSEB at Kanjikode and equal power producers at Attappady and Ramakkalmedu.
