The FOWIND Consortium has announced the commissioning of India's first offshore LiDAR, off the coast of Gujarat, in the Gulf of Khambhat. The data from this offshore LiDAR will support India's Ministry of New and Renewable Energy's efforts towards exploring the full potential of offshore wind along India's coastline.
India's National Institute of Wind Energy developed the offshore platform on which the FOWIND LiDAR has been commissioned. This offshore LiDAR is a Leosphere WINDCUBE v2 procured by FOWIND from MeteoPole. The four-year FOWIND project aims to put together a roadmap for developing a sustainable and commercially viable offshore wind industry in India. . The FOWIND consortium aims to complete the preliminary roadmap for offshore wind development in India in early 2018.
