Does China have offshore wind power?

Although China’s offshore wind power started late, its development momentum is very strong in recent five years. In June 2010, China’s first offshore wind farm, the Phase I (100 MW) of Shanghai East Bridge offshore wind power demonstration project, realized grid-connected power generation.

Which offshore wind power survey project has been successfully completed?

In November, all field data collection of the offshore wind power survey project of Power China (Yantai) Mouping New Energy Power undertaken by Sinopec Shanghai Geophysical Prospecting Company has been successfully completed.

Why was offshore wind power development slow during the 12th Five-Year Plan?

During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, the development of offshore wind power was slow due to immature technology, high investment cost and lack of professional development and maintenance team.

When did CNOOC start offshore wind power development in China?

In November 2007, CNOOC installed a Goldwind’s 1.5 MW wind turbine on its drilling platform in Bohai Bayto provide electricity for oilfield facilities. The successful grid-connected operation of this test unit marks the official start of offshore wind power development in China.

Who supports a wind power hub in the North Sea?

After the plan was put forward, it was supported by TenneT TSO GmbH, Energinet.dk, Gasunie and Rotterdam Port. In 2019, NSWPH further improved the design of wind power hub in the North Sea.

Should offshore wind power be developed?

The development of offshore wind power is an importantly strategic measures for these areas to achieve “carbon peak and carbon neutrality”. However, there are both opportunity and risk. First, the comprehensive development of marine resources lacks top-level design, and the supporting policies need to be further improved.
