Tamil Nadu on July 9 evacuated 120.25 million units of wind energy, an all-time high. So far in this month, the State has consistently evacuated over 100 million units for six days.
On Sunday, Tangedco chairman and managing director Rajesh Lakhani tweeted that the evacuation was an all-time high in Tamil Nadu, and maybe across the country too. No State would have generated and absorbed so much wind power in a day. “Will fact check the country data once again,” he added.
