Turbines

Sir/ Madam,
I am directed to refer to NoCs issued by Ministry of Defence for installing Wind
Turbines in the vicinity of Air Force Stations wherein one of the mandatory requirement is
Standard obstruction markings and lightings, as per IS 5613 notification and International
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards, on wind turbines. The relevant clause of
NoC is reproduced as under:

"Standard obstruction markings and lightings as per IS 5613 notification and


International Civil Aviation Organization (/CAO) standards as stipulated in ICAO-
Annex-14 shall be provided by the company. The lights shall
be kept 'ON' at al/times. Provision shall be made for standby power supply to
keep the lights 'ON' during power failure. Company shall ensure standard markings
and serviceabilityof obstacle lights in all weather conditions."

2. In this regard, during a meeting with IAF at Bhuj Air Force Station it was
informed by Indian Air Force authorities that the obstacle lights of several wind turbines
are either damaged/ not working which creates hazard for our aircrafts.

3. Accordingly, it was requested during the meeting to ensure that the standard
markings and serviceability of obstacle lights on all wind turbines, as per above
mentioned clause failing which the Ministry will be constrained to advise disconnection of
such wind turbines from the grid. Accordingly, all OEMs/ wind farm developers/ Wind
Farm operators are requested to submit a report regarding the operation of said lights on
their wind turbines to this Ministry at the earliest, latest by 17.01.2020.
Yours faithfully
