BENGALURU: India is expected to install between 1,306-1,506MW of wind capacity in calendar year 2020, which, because of the Covid-19 outbreak this year, will be substantially lower than in the last few years, according to a forecast by BloombergNEF.
The country installed 2,370MW in 2019 and 2,290MW in 2018.
In its recent report on the global wind market, BloombergNEF gave three different estimates of likely wind capacity addition, depending on whether the outbreak turns out to be a “single-wave pandemic,” a “multiple wave pandemic” or an “enduring pandemic”.
