Abstract

A comprehensive overview of the Indian wind energy industry, including the technology transfer process. The global wind energy sector is also discussed, highlighting its significance and trends. Furthermore, this chapter introduces the concept of technology transfer and its relevance in the wind energy sector. The wind energy sector relies heavily on technology transfer, which involves the sharing and implementation of knowledge, skills, and expertise between organizations. This process is crucial for the development and improvement of wind-electric generators. This chapter explores the methods of technology transfer, including technology development, and the challenges associated with it. It also discusses the role of various organizations involved in wind electric generator manufacturing. Several models are employed in the technology transfer process in the Indian wind energy industry. The technology transfer process in the Indian wind energy industry is influenced by various hurdles and enablers. This paper identifies and discusses these factors, highlighting their impact on the success of technology transfer initiatives.
