Option 4 : Gujarat

  •  The wind is an intermittent and site-specific resource of energy and therefore, an extensive Wind Resource Assessment is essential for the selection of potential sites. The Government, through the National Institute of Wind Energy (NIWE), has installed over 800 wind-monitoring stations all over the country and issued wind potential maps at 50m, 80m, 100m, and 120m above ground level.
  • The highest wind power potential in India as per MVRE's latest report is in Gujarat.
  • In Gujarat, the Wind potential at 100 m (GW) is 84.43.

Hence, the correct answer is Gujarat.

 The recent assessment indicates a gross wind power potential of 302 GW in the country at 100 meters and 695.50 GW at 120 meters above ground level. Most of this potential exists in seven windy States as given below:-
