What does a Wind EPC contractor do in India?

A Wind EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contractor manages the full lifecycle of a wind energy project — from site resource assessment and micrositing to WTG foundation construction, turbine erection, SCADA integration, grid commissioning, and long-term O&M. SSV Infra provides single-window accountability across all these phases.

How long does wind farm commissioning take in India?

A typical utility-scale wind farm in India takes 12–18 months from financial close to commissioning, depending on site conditions, grid connectivity, and regulatory approvals. SSV Infra uses milestone-tracked delivery with contractual penalties to ensure on-time completion.

What is RPO compliance and why does it matter?

RPO (Renewable Purchase Obligation) is a mandate by MNRE requiring electricity distribution companies, open access consumers, and captive users to source a specified percentage of their energy from renewable sources. Non-compliance attracts penalties. SSV Infra helps Government bodies, PSUs, and institutions meet their RPO targets end-to-end.

What is the approximate cost of a 1 MW wind project in India?

The cost of a 1 MW onshore wind project in India typically ranges from ₹6 crore to ₹8 crore per MW, depending on turbine type, site terrain, grid distance, and civil work complexity. SSV Infra provides detailed project-specific cost estimates as part of the free feasibility report.

What is the difference between RESCO, CAPEX, and PPA models for renewable energy?

CAPEX: the client owns and funds the plant outright. RESCO (Renewable Energy Service Company): a third party finances, builds, and operates the plant; the client pays for energy consumed. PPA (Power Purchase Agreement): the client agrees to buy power at a fixed rate per unit for a defined period. SSV Infra provides advisory for all three models based on the client's financial objectives.

How does an O&M SLA work for wind farms?

An O&M (Operations and Maintenance) SLA defines guaranteed plant availability — typically 97% for modern wind farms — with financial penalties if the contractor fails to meet the target. SSV Infra's AMC contracts include 24×7 remote SCADA monitoring, preventive maintenance schedules, rapid spare parts response, and performance reporting.

Which states in India have the best wind energy potential?

The highest wind energy potential in India is found in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh — with capacity factors ranging from 28% to 42% at good sites. SSV Infra has operational experience across all these states.

FAQ

Questions we hear most

Straightforward answers to what decision-makers ask before starting a renewable energy project.

A Wind EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contractor manages the complete lifecycle of a wind energy project — site resource assessment, micrositing, WTG foundation design and construction, crane hardstand preparation, turbine erection, SCADA integration, grid commissioning, and handover. SSV Infra also provides in-house O&M after commissioning, giving clients single-window accountability from feasibility to long-term performance.

A typical utility-scale wind farm takes 12–18 months from financial close to commissioning, depending on site terrain, grid connectivity distance, and state regulatory timelines. SSV Infra uses milestone-tracked delivery with contractual penalties at each phase gate to ensure on-time completion.

RPO (Renewable Purchase Obligation) is an MNRE mandate requiring electricity distribution companies, open access consumers, and captive users to source a specified percentage of their power from renewable sources. Non-compliance attracts financial penalties and reputational risk. SSV Infra helps Government bodies, PSUs, and large institutions meet their RPO targets with end-to-end project execution and regulatory coordination.

The installed cost of a 1 MW onshore wind project in India typically ranges from ₹6 crore to ₹8 crore per MW, depending on turbine type, site terrain, grid distance, and state-specific civil work costs. SSV Infra provides a detailed, site-specific cost estimate as part of the free feasibility report.

CAPEX: The client owns and finances the plant outright — highest long-term returns, requires capital. RESCO: A third party funds, builds, and operates the plant; the client pays only for energy consumed — zero upfront capital. PPA: The client agrees to buy power at a fixed rate per unit for a defined period (typically 15–25 years). SSV Infra provides advisory for all three models based on the client's financial objectives.

An O&M SLA defines the guaranteed plant availability percentage — typically 97% — with financial penalties payable to the plant owner if the contractor falls short. SSV Infra's AMC contracts include 24×7 remote SCADA monitoring, scheduled preventive maintenance, rapid spare parts response (critical spares within 24 hours), and monthly performance reporting against SLA targets.

The highest onshore wind energy potential in India is concentrated in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh — with gross capacity factors ranging from 28% to 42% at premium sites. SSV Infra has project execution experience in all these states.

A credible Wind EPC contractor in India should hold: MNRE empanelment as a channel partner, CEIG (Chief Electrical Inspector to Government) liaison experience for HT/EHT commissioning, nodal agency registration in target states, ISO 9001 quality management certification, and OEM-authorised installation credentials from turbine manufacturers. SSV Infra holds all relevant credentials and has CEIG commissioning experience across multiple states.
