Annexure referred to in reply to part (d) of Lok Sabha Un-starred Question No. 2818 for 5/12/2019 regarding ' Renewable Energy Projects'

## Details of studies carried out through foreign assistance by National Institute of Wind Energy(NIWE)

1. NIWE has conducted offshore wind resource assessment at Gulf of Khambhat off Gujarat Coast as knowledge partner of the FOWIND Consortium led by Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC)  funded  by  European  Union.    The  LiDAR  equipment  was  supplied  by  C-STEP (consortium partner) and the monopile structure was funded by Govt. of India. The project was commissioned during November 2017 and one year measurements have been completed and second year measurements are underway.  This will facilitate the offshore wind energy development in the country.
2. Collaboration  project  under  Indo  German  Energy  Programme-  Green  Energy  Corridors project was under taken by NIWE for developing indigenous solar power forecasting models since April, 2017.  This project was undertaken with technical assistance from GIZ, Germany with technical partners consisting of Overspeed  GmbH, University of Oldenburg, Suntrace GmbH and M/s SGS weather and environmental systems, New Delhi.  Under this project, an indigenous solar power forecasting model for India is developed and the models are in the process  of  validation.    NIWE  has  set  up  Centre  of  Excellence  for  Variable  Generation Forecasting and theses models are under validation and expected to set up operational solar power forecasting system soon.
