Wind is in Abundance… Let’s Harness for Sustainability
Empowering Wind Energy
Wind energy is an important essence of renewable energy which has extreme potential to serve the need of power requirements. Its 24×7 availability and innovative technologies make a perfect combination for harnessing a higher level of energy. Suitable policy framework and quick adaptability in the private, public sector, and government organizations make it a key contributor to the renewable sector.
We at UGES provide various value-added advisory and technical services to establish wind energy assets. UGES has handled a single project size capacity from 25MW up to 300MW. Cumulative contribution 8.5GW of wind energy-oriented services makes us unique to cater desired services from feasibility study to asset management as explained in further sections.
Feasibility Study
Project feasibility study is the first step to commence the project. Site Survey, Digitization of maps, constructional feasibility of civil and electrical infrastructure are key deliverables of Site Feasibility Assessment. Site review and conditional assessment of utility Substations and Grid enables the visibility of power evacuation with current loading pattern and upcoming projects. Infrastructure assessment on ground gives early indicator of upcoming bottlenecks as per future project plans. This saves investor from recurring losses and increases ROI. Our commitment to cost, time and quality along with our expertise down to very last detail here’s what we can provide:
Policy study
Permits and approvals
Contract review
Aim to maximize operational and financial performance
Site survey and land verification
Transmission profiling & line loss estimation
Load flow and evacuation study
Project & cost optimization
