The Orissa Renewable Energy Development Agency (OREDA) plans to tap the potential available in the state in the wind energy sector.
For this, currently wind resources assessment survey is being carried out at 22 locations including Chandbali, Puri, Chhatrapur, Nawarangpur and Damanjodi. This task is being carried out by the Centre for Wind Energy Technology (Chennai), Suzlon and Epuron.
Wind velocities beyond 8 metres per second are suitable for generation of power, as per estimates, the wind power potential in Orissa is 800 MW.
