- India is already a leading player in wind energy. Estimates suggest that the potential for wind energy in India could be much higher than current estimates, with larger turbinesoperating at increased heights. This is likely to ensure an even faster growth for the wind energy sector in India.This white paper is intended to through some light in the current situation of the wind energy market in India. These are exciting times for Indian renewable energy, and especially so for solar and wind energy. Investments in renewable energy industry in India have increased from a meager $94.58 million in 2001 to $3.7 billion in 2008, and about $7.2 billion by 2009 - at a CAGR of 72%. A significant part of these  investments were in wind energy. For the past few years China has been doubling its cumulative wind energy installed capacity, and by end of 2009, the country had a cumulative installed capacity of 25.1 GW, from 12.1 GW for end-2008 - over 100% growth! During the same year, India added a modest 1.27 GW, raising its total installed capacity from 9.65 GW to 10.92 GW. The comparative data for India and China show the potential the Indian wind energy sector has. With the government of India keen on  promoting renewables with attractive incentives, the wind energy sector is expected to created thousands of jobs and a number of business opportunities for the private sector. EAI is glad to be part of the The Renewable Energy Chennai 2010 Conference which has a focus on the exciting wind energy sector. We hope that this white paper on the opportunities present in the wind energy sector will assist entrepreneurs and businesses in their efforts at exploring this sector. EAI thanks Exhibitions India/Comnet Conferences for providing the opportunity to present this white paper as part of the conference, and wishes the very best for the success of the conference.- Mục lục1.
