Historic milestone: VOC Port handles 147 windmill blades from a single vessel, the highest in India

V.O. Chidambaranar Port Authority has achieved a new milestone in renewable energy cargo by handling 147 numbers of windmill blades and accessories. This marks the highest volume of windmill blades handled in a single vessel at any Port in India. Incidentally, this surpasses the previous record of 103 windmill blades handled by VOC Port on 21.11.2025, reinforcing its growing role in supporting India’s green energy initiatives. The vessel MV. Bo Run Jiu Zhou, loaded with 147 windmill blades, each measuring 76m in length, arrived from the Port of Qinzhou, China, on 03.03.2026 and completed the discharge, on 08.03.2026.

In the current financial year, up to February 2026, VOC Port has handled 4211 windmill blades, registering a growth of  75.82 %  compared to 2395 blades handled up to February 2025. In order to affirm its position as the number one windmill handling port in the county, VOC Port is sprucing its infrastructure by creating additional storage space to the tune of 60,000  square metres  within the custom bond area and an additional area of 1,80,000  square metres outside the custom bond area.
