Generation of Power
Ushdev International uses
the most recent and state of the art facility for generating
wind power.
- The first set-up was in 1997 with
11 machines. We are one of the highest Plant Load
Factor (PLF) achievers in the country with a PLF of
36% compared to an industry average of 18%
-
In March 2005, the company had
installed and commissioned a new wind mill project
in Chinnaputhur village, Dharampuram Taluk, Erode
District, comprising of 2 Enercon make E-48 WEC’s
of 800 KVA each totaling 1.60 MW at a cost of Rs.7.80
crores spread over 10 acres of land. Granted PLF
by Enercon is 28% in March 2006, the company put
up 2 machines of 800 KW each in Chitradurga district
of Karnataka at a cost of 8 crores, and 3 machines
of 800 KW each in Jaisalmer district in Rajasthan
at a cost of 12 crores.

After which in March 2006, the
company put up 2 machines of 800 KW each in Chitradurga
district of Karnataka at a cost of 8 crores, and
3 machines of 800 KW each in Jaisalmer district
in Rajasthan at a cost of 12 crores.The rotating
part of the ring generator and the rotor of the
WEC form a unit.

The following
is a brief write up on the technology and related aspects
used by the Company in the process of generating Wind
Energy.
The wind energy converters
installed by USHDEV are developed and designed to minimize
loads. They show, amongst others, the following characteristics
-
-
The rotating part of the ring
generator and the rotor of the WEC form a unit.
-
The power produced by the generator
will be fed into the public grid via the grid connection
system.
-
The key components of the E-WEC
are the ring generator, the rotor and the grid connection
system
