The Jaisalmer Wind Park is India's second largest and globally the fourth-largest operational onshore wind farm.[1] This project is located in Jaisalmer district, Rajasthan, Western India.
History
The project was initiated in August 2001 by developed by Suzlon Energy and comprises Suzlon's entire wind portfolio – ranging from the earliest 350 kW model to the latest S9X – 2.1 MW series. [2] Its installed capacity is 1,064 MW, which makes it one of the world's largest operational onshore wind farms.[3]
By April 2012, its combined installed capacity crossed 1000 MW i.e.,1 GW.[4] At 1064 MW, the wind park became the largest of its kind in India,[4] and one of the largest wind farms in the world.[5]
In 2015, 24 wind turbine generator of 2.1 MW each were installed at Tejuva, taking the overall production to 1300 MW.[6]
