Power generated from this project will be supplied to the northern and eastern states of UP, Bihar, Jharkhand and Odisha using the inter-state transmission system (ISTS) network. The project is part of India’s first wind power reverse auction concluded by Solar Energy Corporation of India Ltdin February 2017 under the 1,000-MW ISTS network.
The 250-MW wind power project was won at a tariff of 3.46 INR/unit by Ostro Kutch Wind Pvt Ltd in April 2017, which, through an acquisition of OstroEnergy Pvt Ltd and its portfolio of wind and solar energy projects, became a part of ReNew Power in March 2018.
“ReNew Power is India’s first renewable energy company to commission the first wind power project under ISTS scheme of SECI I wind auction,” Sumant Sinha, Chairman and Managing Director, ReNew Power Ltd, said.
Ostro Kutch Wind awarded this 250-MW turnkey project to Vestas Wind Technology India, which includes delivery, installation and commissioning of 125 V110-2.0 MW turbines, as well as the project’s BoP works (civil & electrical). The turbines will be serviced by Vestas via a 10-year service contract.
