K. Puram, New Delhi-110066 FOREWORD Salinity is a significant challenge and poses risks to sustainable development of Coastal regions of India. If left unmanaged, salinity has serious implications for water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, supply of water for critical human needs and industry and the longevity of infrastructure. The Coastal Salinity has become a persistent problem due to ingress of the sea water inland. This is the most significant environmental and economical challenge and needs immediate attention. The coastal areas are more susceptible as these are pockets of development in the country. Most of the trade happens in the coastal areas which lead to extensive migration in the coastal areas. This led to the depletion of the coastal fresh water resources. Digging more and more deeper wells has led to the ingress of sea water into the fresh water aquifers turning them saline. The rainfall patterns, water resources, geology/hydro-geology vary from region to region along the coastal belt.

  • Developing India's Largest Wind Park
    10 January, 2013 For immediate release Suzlon crosses 1,000 MW in Kutch; developing India’s largest wind park Wind park development initiated in August 2005 Features full range of Suzlon’s turbine models, including latest S9X Pune: The Kutch wind park, being developed by the Suzlon Group – the world’s fifth largest* wind turbine maker, has crossed 1,000 MW (1 GW) of installed capacity. This achievement makes the wind park one of the largest of its kind in India, a proud accomplishment for the state of Gujarat and Suzlon. Suzlon currently has a total installed capacity of over 1,500 MW in the state of Gujarat, accounting for nearly 50 per cent of the total wind power installations. The other locations in Gujarat where Suzlon has installations are in the districts of Jamnagar, Porbandar, Rajkot and Bhavnagar. Speaking on this achievement, Mr Rohit Modi, CEO – India and emerging markets, Suzlon Energy Limited, said: “Suzlon is proud to be playing such a vital role in powering the state of Gujarat through sustainable energy solutions. Suzlon credits this achievement to the trust, support and encouragement of the state government, customers, policy makers, state power utilities, suppliers and local communities who have played a vital role in bringing this dream project to fruition. “The Kutch wind park is a powerful illustration of how Suzlon serves its customers and the communities we work in. We take this opportunity to renew our commitment to Gujarat and to harness the incredible wind potential in the state.” This wind park lights up the lives of the local community through Suzlon Foundation’s interventions.
