The electricity generated will be supplied to the Indian national grid, displacing power otherwise produced from fossil fuel–dominated sources. The project is expected to generate approximately 14,374 MWh of clean electricity annually and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by around 13,619 tCO₂e per year over the 7-year crediting period.

Contribution to Sustainable Development

The project contributes to sustainable development across four key dimensions:

1. Social Wellbeing

The project enhances the quality of life in nearby communities by:

• Improving living standards through better access to infrastructure such as electricity, roads, and basic services.
• Reducing rural-to-urban migration by creating local employment opportunities.
• Supporting long-term community development in remote areas.

2. Economic Wellbeing

The project stimulates economic growth in the region by:

• Creating both direct and indirect employment during construction and operations.
• Facilitating the development of local markets and industries.
• Attracting future investments and contributing to increased regional income and GDP.

3. Environmental Wellbeing

As a renewable energy initiative, the project significantly improves environmental outcomes:

• Wind power is among the cleanest sources of energy, with no fuel combustion or emissions.
• It requires minimal land area per megawatt, preserving land use efficiency.
• The resource is naturally available, renewable, and non-exhaustive.
• The project has no negative impact on biodiversity or local ecosystems.

4. Technological Wellbeing

The power generation technology used in this project activity is provided by M/s. Suzlon Energy Limited. The technological well-being envisaged by the project promoter is as follows:

• Demonstration of reliable and scalable wind power technology.
• A model for replication, encouraging wider adoption of clean energy technologies in the region.
•       Transfer of environmentally sound and proven technology aligned with global best practices, contributing to technological advancement and capacity-building in the local context.
