| CONVENTIONAL WIND |
| Conventionally, wind as an energy resource was used only in power generation, and agricultural water pumping, that too in small quantities. Activities concerning the development of wind energy resources were first initiated by the CEB on small scale technologies, primarily, for water pumping and electrification of remote areas. Systematic studies on large scale wind power generation too were conducted throughout this period. These activities led to the launching of the first ever detailed wind monitoring programme in the south eastern part of the country in 1998 by the CEB with the technical and financial assistance from the Government of Netherlands. |

| In 1999 the CEB commissioned the first grid connected wind power plant primarily as a pilot project. The total capacity of the wind power plant is 3 MW, consisting of 5 wind turbines. |
