Solution

The correct option is B 1986
In 1986, the first wind farm with 10 turbines of 55 KW each was installed at Mullakkadu, in Tamilnadu to demonstrate the techno-economic viability of wind power and to attract private investments in wind mills. This was later expanded to a wind farm with a total installed capacity of 1.15 MW.
