The project supplies net electricity of 3,251 MWh annually to the Southern Regional Electricity Grid, resulting in estimated emission reductions of 2,979 tCO₂e per year. The electricity generated is supplied directly to the grid without any wheeling arrangement.

Contribution to Sustainable Development

The project contributes to sustainable development across four key dimensions:

1. Social Wellbeing

• The project creates employment opportunities for the local population during erection, operation, and maintenance of the wind farms, thereby improving livelihoods and contributing to poverty alleviation.
• The project develops local infrastructure and amenities which in turn further enhances the community’s living standards.

2. Economic Wellbeing

• The project stimulates local economic activity through procurement of largely unproductive land, leading to an increase in land value and additional income opportunities for farmers who continue cultivation alongside WTGs.
• The project generates both direct and indirect jobs for local workers, while reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels, thereby contributing to national economic stability.

3. Environmental Wellbeing

• By generating clean energy, the project mitigates greenhouse gas emissions, conserves finite fossil fuel resources, and supports the supply of eco-friendly, renewable electricity to the grid.

4. Technological Wellbeing

• The project employs reliable and proven Wind Turbine Generator technology from M/s RRB Energy Limited, encouraging adoption of renewable energy technologies and promoting technical expertise in wind power deployment in India.
