China Windpower Report 2007

Abstract China could lead the world in wind energy development and play a larger role in combating climate change, according to a report by the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC), Greenpeace and Chinese Renewable Energy Industry Association (CREIA). The China Wind Power Report 2007 predicts that China’s installed wind power capacity could reach 122 GW by 2020, equivalent to the capacity of five Three Gorges Dams. China’s current target for wind energy is 30GW by 2020. The report urges China to set a more ambitious target in order to seize the opportunity of massive uptake of wind power, and gives three different growth projections for the Chinese wind market. Given current policies, China’s installed capacity of wind energy could reach 50GW by 2020, accounting for about 4% of the total installed generation capacity. If the policy environment could be further improved, the installed capacity of wind energy could reach 80GW by 2020, accounting for 7% of installed capacity. However, if the Chinese government could give full policy support to wind power, then the installed capacity of wind energy could exceed 120GW by 2020, accounting for up to 10% of the total installed capacity of the country.

China Wind Energy Development Roadmap 2050

Abstract This roadmap foresees wind power capacity reaching 200 GW by 2020, 400 GW by 2030 and 1 000 GW by 2050. Wind power will be one of five main power sources, and will meet 17% of electricity demand. As technology improves and wind power is scaled up, there are no insurmountable barriers to realising these ambitious targets, with respect to resources, technology, industry and the power system.  Depending on the cost of wind energy development and the transmission cost of wind power in different areas, the supply curves in this roadmap will be achieved. If the marginal tariff for wind power is set at CNY 0.55/ kWh excluding the transmission cost for long distance, 700 GW could be installed around seven strategic concentrations.   Before 2020, land-based wind power will dominate, with offshore wind power at the demonstration stage; from 2021 to 2030, both land and offshore wind power will be developed, and far offshore wind power will be in demonstration; after 2030, wind power will be developed further on land and offshore.

Research Report Executive Summary: China Wind Power Development Towards 2030-Feasibility Study on Wind Power Contribution to 10% of Power Demand in China

Abstract In order to quickly turn wind power into an alternative energy, ERI’s Center for Renewable Energy Development has worked together with the China Meteorological Administration, the State Grid Corporation of China, the China Electric Power Research Institute, the Hydropower and Water Resources Planning and Design General Institute, the Chinese Wind Energy Association and many other organizations to analyze the supporting conditions needed for rapid wind development in China, and to recommend ambitious wind development targets for 2030. This research has analyzed the feasibility of realizing the 10 percent target from such perspectives as energy and electricity demand, wind energy and land resources, and wind power technology and grid support, and will put forward policy recommendations.

Wind Farm Performance Improvement Activity Consultant to Collect and Interpret Data and Recommend Corrective Actions

Abstract In the framework of the 2nd phase of the Wind Farm Performance Improvement Project data of 3 exemplary wind farms has been analysed in order to determine the performance level and to find out reasons for underperformance of individual machines or a complete wind farm. Based on these analyses then improvement measures have been identified that could help to increase the performance of the wind farms.

Joint Memorandum on Realising the Opportunity and Potential of the Chinese Wind Market 2007

Abstract In the past, China has typically met its increased demands for electricity by burning more coal, but this has had very serious environmental consequences. The country has abundant wind resources, and the environmental benefits of utilizing this renewable resource are likely to be considerable. In order to spur its development, it has been proposed that the wind resource be treated much like oil or natural gas—and that Wind Resource Concessions (WRC) be established and granted to developers offering the most attractive bidding prices. This report addresses the potential use of the WRC approach within China. Both the conventional energy business and renewable energy business are affected by WRC. Their concerns are described, and the single most problematic aspect of wind power development—its high cost with respect to alternatives—is then addressed. Wind power will require governmental support, and this report describes potential policy approaches for providing such support, and for developing

Wind Turbines Made in China or Made by China

Abstract China, a country with one of the world’s largest wind energy potentials, has seen tremendous growth in its wind power development in recent years. Yet Chinese manufacturers are still struggling to break into their own nation’s lucrative wind turbine industry. In 2005, domestic companies accounted for only 23 percent of China’s cumulative installed turbine market. The remainder of the production was dominated by foreign wind turbine giants, including Spain’s Gamesa, Denmark’s Vestas, and Germany’s Nordex.
