Opportunities and Challenges of Offshore Wind Power in India.The objective of this study was to understand the prospects of Offshore Wind Power in India and the related challenges. A detailed study of various European countries that have already gained excellence in Offshore Wind Power Projects have been done and based on that study, different cost reduction potentials in India have been listed. The report also provides few possible potential sites, a list of probable clearances… Show more Opportunities and Challenges of Offshore Wind Power in India.The objective of this study was to understand the prospects of Offshore Wind Power in India and the related challenges. A detailed study of various European countries that have already gained excellence in Offshore Wind Power Projects have been done and based on that study, different cost reduction potentials in India have been listed. The report also provides few possible potential sites, a list of probable clearances required for setting up of Offshore Wind Farm in India, the need of Regulatory Frame Work for such high capital cost projects and finally, Tariff for Offshore Wind Power at various CUF's.
