Power Generated from Wind Mills is used for captive consumption. Expected Annual Generation from Wind Mills is 25.9 million units(28% PLF) and this will meet ICF’s Energy demand. Excess energy generated from Wind mills will be sold to TNEB. Project qualifies for CDM benefits and annual revenue of Rs.2.0 crores is expected from carbon credits. Project serves as a corporate responsibility towards green energy, taking care of the sustainable development aspect. Since being green energy it will reduce carbon emission which will in turn reduce the global warming etc. Daily Generation Report is available on ICF Railnet Website(Electrical Dept link).
FUTURE PLANNING
Indian Railways has also planned to set up additional 168 MW of wind mill plants. Out of this 10.5 MW will be set up with Railways’ own funding whereas 157.5 MW has been planned through alternate modes of financing. Out of this, contract for 25 MW windmills in Rajasthan have been awarded by Railway Energy Management Company Limited. ( REMCL)target for commissioning in Dec., 2015. For remaining capacity, states having adequate wind speed and proper power evacuation arrangements are being worked out. Bids for part quantity will be invited in Jan. 2015.
