Windergy India 2026 from October 7 to 9
The Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association is organizing Windergy India 2026 in Chennai to discuss the country's wind energy capacity goals. The event aims to foster supply chain resilience and increase domestic manufacturing of high-value wind energy components.
Why it matters
As India targets 100 GW of wind energy by 2030, strengthening the domestic manufacturing ecosystem is critical for energy security and economic growth.
“India has made significant strides in wind energy capacity, having nearly doubled in just five years to reach around 54 GW of installed capacity. To sustain this momentum towards 100 GW by 2030, we need to focus equally on manufacturing depth and supply chain resilience,” according to Saravanan Manickam, Vice Chairman cum Secretary, Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association.
“Tamil Nadu’s role in this journey has been significant, and India has made commendable progress in indigenisation, with domestic value addition now estimated at 70-80%, but strengthening capability in high-value components such as gearboxes, specialised bearings, and permanent magnet materials will be critical to closing the remaining gap and building a truly self-reliant wind manufacturing ecosystem,” he added.
