The share of wind energy under the Indian REC (Renewable Energy Certificate Scheme) increased by 22% in 2012, to a capacity of over 2,000 MW (2 GW).
Upwards of 520 wind projects in seven states — Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu — have been officially recognized since the REC scheme was commissioned in 2010.
