Wind energy continues to be the dominant source of renewable power in India. About 8000 MW of wind power capacity has been installed in the country so far. As against this, the share of solar power is abysmally low mainly due to its high initial capital cost and thus, a higher cost of per unit power generation. The MNRE (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy) has drawn up an ambitious plan of adding about 14 500 MW during the current plan period.
