Inox Wind wins 100 MW power project from Ostro Energy

PTI reported that Inox Wind today said it has bagged an order for a 100 MW wind power project at Lahori in Madhya Pradesh from Ostro Energy.

The company said that "Inox Wind Limited has bagged an order for a 100 MW wind power project at Lahori, in the state of Madhya Pradesh from Ostro Energy."

It said that Ostro Energy is backed by Actis, a global pan-emerging market private equity firm with USD 7.6 billion of funds under management.

Inox will supply and install 50 units of its advanced 2MW DFIG 100 rotor dia Wind Turbine Generators for Ostro Energy on a turnkey basis.

It said that the rotor has one of the highest swept areas that makes it ideally suited to maximise returns, especially in low wind areas.

Inox Wind will be responsible for the entire project lifecycle, from development and construction to commissioning and has also been contracted to undertake operations and maintenance services of the project for a multi year period, post commissioning.

The 100 MW project will be a part of the Inox Wind Park of 200 MW capacity at Lahori, one of many such Wind Parks being developed by Inox across the country.

India approves National Offshore Wind Energy Policy

A key stakeholder said that a new policy approved by India’s cabinet will simplify its foray into offshore wind power.

The National Offshore Wind Energy Policy approved by the Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi’s Union Cabinet on September 9th designates the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy as the nodal ministry for use of offshore areas within the country’s Exclusive Economic Zone. It also puts the National Institute of Wind Energy in charge of offshore wind energy development in the country, authorizing it to allocate offshore wind energy blocks and to coordinate functions with related ministries and agencies.

India, which already has 23 GW of onshore wind power capacity, has a coastline of more than 7,600 kilometers and has been thought to have enormous wind energy potential offshore.

Mr Tulsi Tanti, Suzlon’s chairman in a statement that “For Indian wind-turbine manufacturer Suzlon, the new policy opens up new possibilities. One of the key advantages of off-shore wind energy is that large sized projects of 1,000 MW and above can be built with the capacity utilization factor ranging from 45%-50%. This also enables better utilization of transmission infrastructure and better dispatchability, with insignificant impact on land requirements. We foresee offshore wind energy revolution in our country, given India’s very long coast line.”

Mr Tanti, said that the decision will simplify and create a single window system for relevant approvals from various central government departments and state maritime boards, too.

Suzlon is conducting a techno-commercial feasibility in Gujarat, where it says it has identified more than 1 GW of offshore wind energy potential on the Kutch Coast. “We believe, this is likely to be the first private sector off-shore wind energy project of the country.”

To increase energy security and diversify supply reliance beyond coal, hydro, nuclear, and natural gas, India wants to expand its renewable power capacity to 175 GW by 2022, including 100 GW of solar, 60 GW of wind power, 10 GW of biomass, and 5 GW of small hydropower. The country’s current installed renewable capacity stands at 34 GW.

Off-grid wind power projects to face financing issues - India Ratings


India Ratings and Research said in its latest reported that Projects to be rolled out under the newly approved offshore wind policy are likely to face challenges in achieving financial closure and needs to be backed by the public sector to avoid it.

The policy guidelines have proposed offshore wind generation capacities through public private partnerships.

India Ratings said that rollout through the engineering, procurement, construction route in the initial phase will be a viable option to attract private participation, given the inherent complexities of these projects and the uncertainties around an unexplored area of offshore wind generation. Private sector participation as developers would be restricted to sponsors with strong balance sheets wherein financing may be with recourse.

The report said that "The policy, if implemented well, will provide an impetus to the falling wind capacity additions as offshore wind generation involves limited use of land and lack of land has been a major impediment to its growth. The policy could also help the country achieve the national installed wind capacity target of 60 GW by 2022."

The ratings agency said offshore wind projects could be attractive propositions from a return perspective, given the risk return profile.

It said that "However, these are contingent on timely executions which in Ind-Ra’s opinion could face challenges in the initial phase."

While globally offshore wind power generation has been in existence across Europe and China, the total capacity set up till date is only 11 GW. Given the limited experience, the sector may witness entry of international players with technical expertise to bid individually or in collaboration with Indian EPC players to gain an early mover advantage.

The agency said that private participation in the initial phase of offshore wind generation will only be restricted to EPC services, and capacity additions by and large would come from public funding from state and central utilities.

Indian firms line up for Welspun's green projects

Business Standard reported that Hero Future Energies, ReNew Power and Reliance Cleangen are evaluating the renewable energy portfolio of Welspun Enterprises. Welspun Renewables, wholly-owned green energy arm of Welspun Enterprises, is selling equity stakes in its solar and wind power projects.

SoftBank, earlier keen to pick up stakes in the projects, has dropped out.

Welspun Renewables was raising capital through equity sales, said a person close to development. Persons in the know said domestic and foreign companies were in the fray to invest in Welspun Renewables' projects totalling 400 MW.

Mr Vineet Mittal, vice-chairman, Welspun Renewables, did not respond to phone calls and text messages. The company's spokesperson also did not respond.

Promoted by B D Goenka, the Welspun Group has interests in textiles, polychemicals, steel, cement and renewable energy.

Hero Future Energies, a comparatively new entrant with 250 Mw capacity, is keen to buy Welspun's projects but chief executive Sunil Jain declined to comment. Hero has a pipeline of around 1,000 Mw of wind power projects, in seven states.

Reliance Cleangen, renewable energy arm of the Anil Ambani-promoted Reliance Power, said that it had no such plans. Sumant Sinha, chief executive, ReNew Power Ventures, said he would "refrain" from commenting.

ReNew Power is backed by Goldman Sachs with an equity investment of close to USD 350 million and its current total equity is $655 million. The company has 1,600 Mw of clean energy assets across the country, out of which 1,000 Mw are wind energy projects.

Chinese taps faraway frontier for renewable energy

The Dabancheng wind farm is closer to Kabul than Beijing, but China’s government is counting on it to help power the central and eastern parts of the country where the bulk of the population lives, more than a thousand miles away.

The blades of one of hundreds of turbines, each the length of half a football field, rip through the air, thrusting like a jet with each rotation. They’re pushed by 40 mile-per-hour wind gusts, blowing through a narrow valley between snow-capped mountains of the Tian Shan range to the north toward the Tarim Basin in the desert south.

Mr Zhu Xinxiang through a heavy gust of wind shouts “The history of China’s wind power started here.”

Mr Zhu is a general manager at Goldwind. His company established China’s first wind farm here in 1989, a bygone era when there weren’t any construction cranes to be found in this part of China, so Goldwind had to enlist the help of government officials from Denmark, who donated one to build the farm’s first turbines.

Nearly three decades later, China’s the world’s second-biggest economy, Goldwind is the world’s second-largest wind turbine maker, and Dabancheng has expanded to hundreds of turbines, generating enough electricity to power 2.5 million homes. But there’s a problem.

He said that “China is a vast land, and here in Xinjiang, we’re very far away from the rest of the country. We need transmission to send this electricity thousands of miles away.”

Mr Zhu points to the south, where Goldwind has just built nearly a hundred top-of-the-line turbines. The fierce wind blows through them, too, but their blades aren’t turning. Goldwind is waiting for China’s electrical grid to catch up.

Mr Yu Wuming, former Goldwind CEO, said that the government’s building five ultra-high transmission lines in Xinjiang to send this energy to the places that need it, but it will take time. A huge transmission line takes three to five years to build, but a wind farm only takes a year to build

And that’s why, said Goldwind’s Zhu Xinxiang, 40 percent of the electricity generated by Dabancheng in the past year went nowhere. The energy could have powered a million homes, preventing air pollution and reducing China’s carbon footprint, but there weren’t transmission lines in place to carry it all.

The industry calls this curtailment, and it is a big problem in China.

Jordan launches ME's largest utility scale wind power project

Jordanian government announced the launch of the region's first utility-scale wind power plant in the kingdom which will produce energy from carbon free resources, displacing 235,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually.

The 117-megawatt Tafila wind farm project has been developed by Jordan Wind Project Company (JWPC), an international coalition that includes InfraMed Infrastructure Fund (France), Masdar (UAE) and EP Global Energy (Cyprus).

Senior officials of JWPC at the opening ceremony held in the presence of King Abdullah II, said that the wind power plant is directly connected to the national grid and will produce 400 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually.

They said that the project is in line with a royal vision to diversify energy sources and promote greater reliance on renewable energy. The Tafila Wind Farm was developed in response to the 2010 renewable energy law, calling for around 10 per cent of electricity to come from renewable sources by 2020.

The officials said that once the plant starts operation, it will save the government a total of USD 50 million annually.

Jordan presently imports around 96 per cent of its energy needs at a cost equivalent to 20 per cent of the country's GDP.

After the launch, King Abdullah II toured the entire plant owned and managed by the JWPC.

At JD85 ($119.4) per megawatt-hour, the wind turbines will produce electricity at less than half the cost of generation for conventional power sources. The project will thus save the government around $50 million every year, and will supply approximately 3.5 per cent of the country's annual electricity consumption.

Mr Samer Judeh, JWPC chairman, said that "The Tafila Wind Farm will contribute towards achieving energy security. The project is a quantum leap not only for Jordan but the Arab world as a whole, as it is the first to implement an effective solution for Jordan's energy challenges through a partnership between the public and private sectors."

Mr Judeh said that "We believe the project will stimulate the investment climate for similar renewable energy projects in Jordan to take place and will make Jordan a new and important destination for renewable energy investments in the region."
