As most wind farms are located in remote and often underdeveloped regions, small back-up diesel generators are sometimes needed for basic requirements at the site offices.
It eliminates the need for generator sets, eliminating diesel and oil consumption, emissions and providing long term cost savings.

Speaking on the project, Krishnappa Subramanya, chief executive officer – TATA BP Solar India Ltd. Said: “We are pleased to partner with Suzlon in this project. This is a great example of blending renewable technologies to create synergies and fully sustainable power solutions. Mainstream renewable technologies like wind and solar are key to secure energy supplies and combating the climate change challenge.”
