Wind energy programme
Wind energy on an industrial scale is one of the future means of energy generation. EPV is persistent on increasing the utilization of wind power in its areas of operation.
Climate change is a major challenge, and one which requires everyone’s contribution. The utilization of wind power is one step towards a future world in which people and nature can live in harmony.
The company has divided wind power generation into three areas between land and hydropower based on geography.
