Renewable Energy in particular Wind and Solar has become a mainstay in meeting energy needs having achieved grid parity in term of costs as well as technical requirement. The wind energy has proved a highly successful energy option with installed capacity of 1.245 TW worldwide as on June 2025. Earth’s commercially viable wind power potential is estimated to be huge and only very few countries are using wind power at a large scale like USA, European countries and Asian countries - China and India. Even though a good potential of wind is available in many countries, the wind power projects are hindered because of the lack of skilled human resources at various stages of deployment.
The National Institute of Wind Energy (NIWE), under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India has pioneered in promoting Wind Energy and has contributed for promotion of wind energy as one of the primary energy sources in India. Decades of concerted efforts have started to yield gratifying results and today, Wind power contributes about 10.5% (55132.50 MW) of the total Indian energy mix of 524009.46 MW and stands fourth in terms of installed wind power capacity worldwide as on February 2026. Today, India is a major player in the global wind energy market with a sustainable annual growth rate. The key factors responsible for this phenomenal success were the policy support from the Centre, especially by MNRE and the technical support extended by NIWE. NIWE has been conducting training courses since 2004 and till now conducted 159 National and 48 International training courses and trained about 6000 professionals from 102 countries. With the vast experiences in conducting training courses, NIWE has an obligation to disseminate the right knowledge learnt to foster growth of wind energy not only in India but also across the globe. In this connection, the 30th National Training Course is proposed to address all aspects of wind energy starting from introduction to wind, technology, wind resource assessment, installation & commissioning and operation maintenance of wind farms along with financial aspects and testing & certification of wind turbines in a focussed manner.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
The objective of the training course is to transfer knowledge and special skills to the wind energy personnel active in technical and operational fields as well as those who are looking for entry in wind energy sector. Moreover, the course will provide an invaluable platform for dialogue and open exchange of views and experiences.
