Large untapped potential in India ~ 65,000 – 100,000 MW

Technologies: Synchronous and Asynchronous Generators (with and without gears), New hybrid technologies are being introduced

Turbine unit sizes: 500 kW to 1.65 MW, may go up to 2.0 MW in near future

Leading States: Tamil Nadu – 4200 MW, Maharashtra – 1800 MW, Gujarat 1400 MW

Costs ~ Rs 6-6.5 Cr / MW subject to project size, location, technology

Leading reactive power raises local voltage Lagging reactive power lowers local voltage Add capacitors to counteract low voltage

conditions

Add reactors to counteract high voltage conditions, Turn off capacitors

Voltage Harmonics

Current Harmonics

This is a typical case of Wind Mills tripping due to Voltage Sag

Voltage Sag caused by tripping of another feeder in the same Sub Station due to earth fault

Rise in load current experienced Suspect of induction Generator aiding the fault
