There had been earlier efforts to explore wind energy in Maldives. In 2007, a Singapore-based company, DLRE, had initiated wind energy pilot project on three islands.
Under the project, a wind farm was constructed in Haa Alifu atoll Uligan on January 7, 2008, but the project, along with similar initiatives in Meemu atoll Raiymandhoo and Gaafu Alifu atoll Kondey, was discontinued.
The current government aims to achieve 33 percent of the country's energy production from renewable sources by 2028.
