        Prior to the commissioning of a wind farm at any location a detailed project report has to be prepared. This will carry all the details like the wind resource, configuration of wind turbine, annual energy production, required civil and electrical works and finally the economic viability of the project. NIWE undertakes such projects.
        NIWE has commissioned so far 915 wind monitoring stations in the country. From these stations one or more years data is available and can be obtained from NIWE. Two different formats are available and these are priced at Rs.15,000 for Second Wind data and Rs.20,000 for NRG data for one year from a station(GST will be levied as per rule).
