where did renew power install its first wind project
ReNew Power ReNew Power Ventures Pvt. Ltd. is an Indian renewable energy company headquartered in Gurgaon, Haryana, India.[1] It is an Independent Power Producer (IPP) of clean energy with an installed capacity of more than 1000 MegaWatt [2] across the states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra and Gujarat,[3] ReNew Power commissioned its first wind farm project in Rajkot district in Gujarat in 2012. Shri. Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, inaugurated the 25.2 MW wind farm at Jasdan.[4]
Wind turbine design Older style wind generators rotate at a constant speed, to match power line frequency, which allowed the use of less costly induction generators.[citation needed] Newer wind turbines often turn at whatever speed generates electricity most efficiently. The varying output frequency and voltage can be matched to the fixed values of the grid using multiple technologies such as doubly fed induction generators or full-effect converters where the variable frequency current produced is converted to DC and then back to AC. Although such alternatives require costly equipment and cause power loss, the turbine can capture a significantly larger fraction of the wind energy. In some cases, especially when turbines are sited offshore, the DC energy will be transmitted from the turbine to a central (onshore) inverter for connection to the grid.
