Odisha is a large coastline state, with favourable wind corridors and a rising energy need, which makes it a potential large wind energy solutions hub in India. We believe that at Corenova Renewable Energy, we can realize this potential in a responsible, efficient and sustainable manner; by using state-of-the-art technology and having a solid sense of the local context.

Why Odisha is the best location of wind energy

  • Coastal Advantage

Odisha coastline is very long with continuous wind speeds particularly in monsoon and post-monsoon seasons. These winds render so many coastal and offshore wind farms in districts along the coast as well as near the coast.

  • Available Land & Open Spaces

In some areas, particularly in the coastal strip and some parts of the interior, the terrain may be open and uncultivated programs, where installations can be carried out with little or no disturbance of the ecology or displacement.

  • Favourable Policy and Infrastructure

The Odisha government has been advocating the integration of renewable energy and it is providing incentives, ease of land acquisition and enhancement of grid accessibility. Wind energy projects would rely heavily on this support to make them viable and scalable.

  • Growing Energy Needs

With the growing industrial base of Odisha, urbanization and rural electrification, the need to have reliable and clean power is growing and this is generating good demand to have a large-scale and distributed solution of wind energy.

 

Wind Energy Solutions: What We Offer Corenova

We are Corenova, offering wind energy solutions in Odisha in the form of end-to-end services, which fit the local climatic, geographic, and economic factors. Our offerings include:

  • Feasibility Investigations and Site Survey

We examine the wind information, topography of the land, the environmental impact and the grid connection to determine the best places to place wind turbines.

  • Design & Engineering

Individual design of turbines, choice of suitable technology (onshore/offshore), design of a sound structure, and plan of structuring to resist high wind loads and cyclone activity of Odisha.

  • Supply & Installation

Since the acquisition of turbines up to the installation, commissioning and setting up. We engage reputable manufacturers and provide adherence to all safety and quality standards.

  • Operation & Maintenance (O&M)

Maintenance is critical- make sure that the blades are healthy, mechanical systems are well maintained, and electrical systems are well maintained and that performance is tracked to ensure that uptime and output are maximised.

  • Grid Integration/Storage Solution

In order to overcome the non-reliability of wind, we assist in the integration of wind energy into the grid, and develop hybrid systems (wind + solar + battery) to provide more reliable power supply.

 

Hardships and the way, we conquer Them

Challenge

Mitigation Strategy at Corenova

Cyclones and severe weather

Strong structural design; high turbine and foundation design; modern monitoring to overcome the problem.

Grid connectivity and Transmission losses

Cooperate with local authorities; invest in new transmission lines; make projects as near as possible to existing substations.

Intermittency & Variability

Hybrid coverage to even the production; storage of energy; predictive analysis to sharpen the peaks/down-turns.

Land & Environmental Clearances

Early environmental impact assessment; community working; open acquisition procedures.

The Effect: What Wind Energy is doing to Odisha

  • Clean Power, Less Pollution

Wind energy produces energy without emissions- Odisha is able to cut its carbon footprint and as a result the quality of air is better and this is particularly in the industrial areas.

  • Energy Security & Local Jobs

Local infrastructure, supply chain and O&M services generate employment. In addition, by diversification of the energy, there is the minimization of dependency on fossil fuels and imported power.

  • Off-grid and Rural Applications

The small-scale wind solutions can serve villages, farms, and remote facilities (e.g., telecom towers), which allows sustainable development of even less accessible regions.

  • Economic Growth & Investment

Projects introduce capital investment, enhancement of infrastructure (road, transmission) and may trigger the further development of renewable energy in the area.

Why Corenova Stands Out

Odisha experience in renewables- Climate, regulatory, and community knowledge.

Pay attention to hybrid systems (wind + solar) in order to provide more consistent energy generation.

Sustainability not only concerning energy, but also ecological and social effects - regenerative land use, minimal eviction and local involvement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

 

1.      What is the strength of wind resources in Odisha and whether they are dependable enough in commercial wind farms?

The coastal strip of Odisha particularly has consistent wind speeds- usually sufficient to operate wind farms of utility scale. Depending on the season, reliability may fluctuate, however, through site evaluation, hybrid or storage options, commercial viability is high.

2.      What is the average cost of installation of wind energy projects in this area?

The prices are based on the size of the turbine, the base needed, the preparation of the site, connection to the grid, and environmental clearance. On the one hand, initial capital is rather important, whereas on the other, the operational expenses are quite low. The length of payback is reliant on capacity factor, tariffs on energy and incentives by the government.

3.      What are the environmental effects of the wind farms, and particularly the coastal Odisha?

Some of the impacts are land use, potential effect on the migration of birds/animals, noise and visual issues. We undertake environmental impact assessment (EIA), select sites to reduce the risk to biodiversity, employ noise-cutting turbine designs and employ the best practices to reduce the negative impacts.

4.      In Odisha, can wind energy benefit the small or medium enterprises (SMEs) or individual farmers?

Yes. Besides big utility scale farms, distributed or hybrid systems available as part of farms, remote locations or off-grid can be found. Scattered wind turbines (or sliding wind turbines) or hybrid systems (wind + solar) can be used to fulfil the local needs or minimize the dependence on grid power.

5.      What is the way wind energy is incorporated in the current grid infrastructure in Odisha?

It requires a good coordination with state electricity boards and transmission authorities through integration. The proximity of the projects to the substations enhances transmission losses. Corenova assists in technical planning, permits and adhering to grid codes. We also make systems which are capable of dealing with intermittency (with storage or back up) to keep the grid stable.
