20-yr-old windmills in TN may get 5-year extension
The New Indian Express
|July 05, 2024
TANGEDCO CMD Rajesh Lakhoni, along with Tamil Nadu Green Energy Corporation Limited (TNGECL) Managing Director Aneesh Sekhar, has recently proposed a five-year extension for windmills that have completed 20 years.

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.
