The park is one of the largest wind farms in India and Asia, with a total installed capacity of 1,064 MW. It was developed in several phases, starting in 2001, and features a range of turbines from Suzlon, including models with capacities from 350 kW to 2.1 MW. The wind park utilizes advanced turbine technology to optimize performance based on wind speed and direction. It is connected to the state grid, supplying electricity to meet the energy demands of Rajasthan and other northern Indian states. The project has contributed significantly to India’s renewable energy capacity, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and creating economic opportunities locally. Operated by ReNew Power, the park demonstrates India's commitment to sustainable energy solutions.
