Projects - Theni II Wind Farm

Theni wind project is one of landmark project of CLP which involved several sustainable initiatives to local communities along with clean energy generation. This project uses wind turbines to generate electricity from wind energy without creating any air or water pollution.

Being a wind project, the Project does not use any fossil fuel to generate electricity. It generates more than 120,500 MWh of electricity per year which is sufficient to power more than 24,000 Indian households and avoids 113,978 tCO2 every year. The Project also avoids use of more than 422 million liters of water per year compared to baseline practice. CLP also ensures regular contributions in different social forums to strengthen the institutional and human resource development as well as for a sustainable livelihood. Rural roads were constructed or strengthen as part of Project development activity. Villagers are free to use these roads thus the Project has also improved local infrastructure and connectivity to nearest city.

The Project is located in rural India and created many employment opportunities for local and non-locals during its construction as well as operations phase.
