The development of wind power in India began in the 1990s, and has significantly increased in the last few years. Although a relative newcomer to the wind industry compared with Denmark or the United States, India has the fifth largest installed wind power capacity in the world.〔"World Wind Energy Report 2008". Report. ("World Wind Energy Report 2008" )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wind atlas of India )〕 In 2009-10 India's growth rate was highest among the other top four countries. The MNRE has announced a revised estimation of the potential wind resource in India from 49,130 MW assessed at 50m Hub heights to 102,788 MW assessed at 80m Hub height.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Estimation of Installable Wind Power Potential at 80 m level in India )〕 The wind resource at higher Hub heights that are prevailing is possibly even more. In the year 2015, the MNRE set the target for Wind Power generation capacity by the year 2022 at 60,000 MW.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://mnre.gov.in/file-manager/UserFiles/Tentative-State-wise-break-up-of-Renewable-Power-by-2022.pdf )〕〔 As of 30 Sept 2015 the installed capacity of wind power in India was 24,376 MW, mainly spread across South, West and North regions.〔(Welcome to Centre for Wind Energy Technology (C-WET), Chennai ). Cwet.tn.nic.in (2013-02-31). Retrieved on 2013-12-06.〕 East and North east regions have no grid connected wind power plant as of March, 2015 end. No offshore wind power farm utilizing traditional fixed-bottom wind turbine technologies in shallow sea areas or floating wind turbine technologies in deep sea areas is under implementation. ==Overview== The worldwide installed capacity of wind power reached 283 GW by the end of 2012. China (75,564 MW), US (60,007 MW), Germany (31,332 MW) and Spain (22,796 MW) are ahead of India in fifth position.〔(Global Wind 2012 Report )〕 The short gestation periods for installing wind turbines, and the increasing reliability and performance of wind energy machines has made wind power a favoured choice for capacity addition in India.〔(Suzlon partners with Maharashtra in record year for wind power )〕 Suzlon, an Indian-owned company, emerged on the global scene in the past decade, and by 2006 had captured almost 7.7 percent of market share in global wind turbine sales. Suzlon is currently the leading manufacturer of wind turbines for the Indian market, holding some 43 percent of market share in India. Suzlon's success has made India the developing country leader in advanced wind turbine technology.〔Lewis, Joassa I. (2007).
