INDUSTRIAL VISIT
WPC Project of Wind Power India Limited
I am pleased to inform you that on 23/02/2024, Electrical Engineering Department in association with IIC and Green Club organised an Industrial Visit at WPC Project of Wind Power India Limited Sikar.
A total of 44 students of core departments EE/ME/CE visited to WPC Project of Wind Power India
About the site:
This site is located at the top of the Harsnath hill and farm was established in 2004 and is approximately 14 km from Sikar town in Rajasthan, India. A 7.2 MW wind power plant is situated at the height of 900 m above sea level, and its latitude is 27°31’0.7” N and longitude is 75°11’0.2” E. The Project harnesses renewable resources in the region, thereby displacing non-renewable natural resources and ultimately leading to sustainable, economic, and environmental development. The project will establish a cluster of sophisticated, Enercon E-40 make, Wind Energy Generators of 0.6 MW (7 Nos.) capacities aggregating to a total installed capacity of 7.2 MW in Harsh Village of Sikar District. The generated electricity is wheeled to the nearest grid sub-station through a 33 kV supply line and fed into the grid after stepping up to 132 kV. The purpose is development, design, engineering, procurement, finance, construction, operation, and maintenance of wind power project of 7.2 MW in the Indian state of Rajasthan to provide reliable, renewable power to the Rajasthan state electricity grid. For Harsh, Sikar, various combinations have been obtained of wind systems with wind turbines, generator, batteries, grid and convertors from the homer Optimization simulation.
Overall, the students enjoyed a lot and learned the practical skills necessary for their future career.
