20-yr-old windmills in TN may get 5-year extension

A final decision is likely to be taken soon, official sources said.

Windmills that have not yet completed 20 years are likely to continue operating under existing arrangements. Despite several requests from owners of windmills, Tangedco does not seem to have plans to introduce a repowering policy. With repowering, windmills can increase the height of their hubs and thereby increase generation.
