Come out with viable policy on offshore wind energy: Stalin to Centre

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has urged the Central government to come out with a viable policy on harnessing offshore wind energy.

Speaking at the Southern Zonal Council meeting held in Tirupathi on Sunday, Stalin said the state has huge potential to harness offshore wind energy.

“However, we are yet to get a green signal from the Central government to go ahead with our projects. Many international organisations are keen to establish partnerships with our government,” he added.

“Therefore, we request the Union government to come out with a viable policy in this regard at its earliest,” the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister said.
