Government Pushes Domestic Sourcing for Wind Turbine Components

The government plans to require Wind Turbine makers to disclose details of domestic vendors and sources of key components—blades, towers, gearboxes, and generators—for inclusion in the Revised List of Models and Manufacturers (RLMM), aiming to reduce imports. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has proposed a one-year exemption for imports covering up to 50 turbines or 200 MW, and for new manufacturers.
