Installed win power in 2006 = 1.840 MWp

Total wind power installed = 6.270 MWp (end 2006)

India has > 135.000 MW of installed power plant capacity with which it produces annually approx. 700 TWh of electricity.

Indian experts estimate that there is a potential of 45.000 MW of installed wind capacity, with only 1/3 considered as technically feasible.
