Domestic Manufacturing Capacity & Potential Cyber Security Challenges in the wind sector and Way Forward

Summary

India's wind energy sector faces critical cybersecurity challenges, primarily stemming from reliance on imported components, especially from China, and vulnerabilities in managing data and power systems. Concurrently, domestic manufacturing capacity for key wind turbine components is hindered by issues like lack of standard sizes and quality concerns. The report proposes a comprehensive strategy that includes policy interventions, enhanced manufacturing support, and robust cybersecurity measures, such as mandatory certification for foreign software/hardware and relocating foreign OEMs' data and R&D centers to India.
