Question

Which is India's largest wind farm?
A) Aralvaimozhi/Muppandal Wind Farm
B) Jaisalmer Wind Park
C) Brahmanvel Wind Farm
D) Damanjodi Wind Farm

Answer 1

Hint: A wind farm or wind park, also known as a wind power station or wind power plant, is a collection of wind turbines used to generate electricity in one place. Wind farms range in size from a few dozen turbines to several hundred turbines spread out over a large area. Onshore and offshore wind farms are both viable options.

Complete answer:
Wind farms have a lower environmental impact than many other sources of power generation since they do not require fuel. Wind farms, on the other hand, have been chastised for their visual impact and landscape impact.
They typically require more land than other power plants and must be constructed in wild and rural regions, which can result in "industrialization of the countryside," habitat degradation, and a decline in tourism.
India has the world's fifth-largest installed wind power capacity. As of March 31, 2014, the total installed capacity of wind power in Tamil Nadu was 21136.3 MW (7253 MW). Wind power generates 1.6 percent of India's total installed power generating capacity and accounts for almost 8.5 percent of the country's total installed power generation capacity.
MW Jaisalmer Wind Park is a wind park in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The Jaisalmer wind park, with a capacity of 1,600 MW, is India's largest wind farm. Suzlon Energy developed the project, which consists of a collection of wind farms in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer area.

Therefore the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: When compared to the environmental impact of other energy sources, wind power has a low environmental impact. Unlike fossil fuel power sources, wind power burns no fuel and produces no emissions. Within a few months, the energy used to manufacture and transport the materials used to construct a wind power plant is equal to the new energy produced by the plant.
