Hyderabad: Mytrah Energy (India) Pvt Ltd (MEIPL), India’s leading independent power producer, has erected and commissioned 150-meter met mast, country’s tallest and Asia Pacific’s second tallest, in Maniyachi in the Kayathar-Tuticorin belt of Tamil Nadu. MEIPL has installed similar masts in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat as well.
Vikram Kailas, CEO, Mytrah Energy, said: “We have always been pioneers in embracing technology to bring a transformation in this business. We aim to continue adopting robust technology to get the Indian wind sector on par with global peers. Wind turbine tower heights have experienced a steady increase in the last 20 years, especially in low wind sites and in obstacle-rich environments.”
MEIPL is the India-based subsidiary of Mytrah Energy Ltd, a renewable power producer listed on the AIM segment of the LSE. Taller towers generate electricity at a lower cost per kilowatt-hour as wind speed and consistency increase with altitude. The 150-meter met mash will help Mytrah perform accurate resource assessment campaigns that reduce uncertainty by capturing data at these heights.
