Independent power producer Indian Energy and Trishe Developers have signed a framework agreement to build up to 1GW of wind farms across India by 2016.

In a separate agreement, Welspun Energy unveiled a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the government of Andhra Pradesh to develop 500MW of wind projects in the state.

The Indian Energy/Trishe deal is one of the largest announced in India’s wind sector since a 2GW agreement between Mytrah Energy and Gamesa in May 2011.
