プロジェクト概要
The main purpose of this project is to generate a clean form of electricity through renewable wind energy. It involves the installation of a 250 MW wind power project in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, through a special purpose vehicle (SPV).
Over the ten years of its first crediting period, the project will replace anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG’s) estimated to be approximately 7,07,799 tCO2e per year, thereon displacing 755,550 MWh/year of electricity from the generation-mix of power plants connected to the Indian grid, which is mainly dominated by thermal/fossil fuel-based power plants.
The Tamil Nadu project fulfills the Ministry of Environment and Forests’ four indicators of sustainable development by improving: 1) social well-being through job creation and infrastructural developments, 2) economic well-being through clean energy investment, 3) technological well-being by the promotion of wind-based power generation in the region, and 4) environmental well-being by the reduction of fossil-fuel dependence and the avoidance of GHG emissions. The project boasts documented contributions to Sustainable Development Goals 7, 8, and 13. Wind energy is considered to be a high-permanence and low-leakage solution.
