The WTGs in the project activity are manufactured by Vestas Wind Technology India Private Limited. The project activity forms a part of the Indian Grid of India. The project activity generates power by using the kinetic energy of wind, thus resulting in zero emissions during electricity production.

The power produced displaces an equivalent amount of power from the grid, which is fed mainly by fossil fuel fired power plants. Hence, it results in reduction of GHG emissions.

Sree Rayalaseema Hi-Strength Hypo Limited the torch bearer of a conglomerate (TGVgroup), is a manufacturer of Calcium Hypochlorite. A state-of-the-art sodium process technology developed through inhouse R&D efforts helps the company in manufacturing the product with a chlorine content of 65% to 70%. Sree Rayalaseema Hi- Strength Hypo Limited exports Calcium Hypochlorite to countries all across the globe.

SRHHL has decided to invest in wind based electricity generation as a part of its corporate responsibility towards clean power and energy security of the nation.

Social well-being: The project activity generates clean power, without emitting any GHGs during its operations. Hence, it leads to a cleaner environment, reducing the adverse impacts of GHG emissions on the people. It also reduces a part of the energy deficit being faced by the country.

Economic well-being: The project activity generates additional employment as people are required for its operations, manufacture, etc. The project attracts new industries due to the availability of electricity and improvement in grid frequency and economic activities like cottage industries, shops, hotels etc. to be setup in the area thereby resulting in more local employment, ultimately leading to overall development.

Environmental well-being: The electricity generated shall replace an equivalent amount of electricity from the respective state grids, which are mainly supplied by fossil fuel fired power plants. Generation of electricity by WTGs does not result in any type of GHG emissions, leading to a cleaner environment.

Technological well-being: The generation of electricity by the project activity will improve availability of electricity to the state grid and also it will provide more opportunities for industries to invest in such cleaner technologies.
