110 Old Windmills in Tamil Nadu to Be Made into Hybrid Wind-Solar Plants

The Tamil Nadu Green Energy Corporation Limited (TNGECL) is looking at converting 110 aged windmills, mainly in the western region of the state, into hybrid wind-solar plants. TNGECL was given the nod at a recent board of directors meeting held at the secretariat. As part of the project, old windmills installed in these regions decades ago will be dismantled to make way for the new hybrid units, officials said. An announcement is expected during the ongoing Assembly session, sources said. A senior TNGECL official said, "Inspections have begun at five locations—Sulthanpet in Coimbatore, Kethanur in Tiruppur, Puliyankulam in Madurai, Muppanthal in Kanyakumari, and Mullakkadu in Thoothukudi. These places have windmills installed during the 1980s and 1990s that have a combined capacity of 47 MW."
