Key Wind Turbine Component

Abstract he project belongs to the sub-grants projects of wind turbine parts.The project carried out the technology improvement, quality verification and mass production of the 1.5MW wind turbine main shaft bearings, and the development and manufacture of the 3MW wind turbine main shaft bearings. The 3MW project is the implementation emphasis. At the same time, the project needs to complete the testing equipment development of the 1.5MW and 3MW wind turbine main shaft bearings, and complete the 1.5MW wind turbine main shaft bearing testing.

Making Carbon Offsets Work in the Developing World: Lessons from the Chinese Wind Controversy

Abstract The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is the leading international carbon market and a driving force for sustainable development globally. But the eruption of controversy over offsets from Chinese wind power has exposed cracks at the core of how carbon credits are verified in developing economies. It has become almost impossible to determine whether offsets from Chinese wind are “additional” and that they in fact represent “real” reductions beyond business as usual. Unless this problem can be resolved, it threatens to spread beyond wind in China and could threaten the ability of carbon markets to deliver the mitigation demanded by international climate policy. In 2009 the CDM Executive Board (EB) shocked the carbon market by forcing an unprecedented review of whether multiple Chinese wind projects satisfied UNFCCC additionality requirements. CDM investors reeled as the safest CDM bet became the riskiest; the Chinese government publicly criticized the UN’s oversight of carbon markets; and the CDM EB prepared itself for an unprecedented fight over how carbon offsets could be verified in the world’s largest CDM market. At the center of the controversy is the Chinese power tariff for wind.

National Action Plan for China’s Wind Power Industry Development

Abstract Developing and utilizing wind energy represent one global trend. Following the IT industry, the wind power industry has already become a sunrise industry. Wind power is expected to meet 12% of electricity demand, create 1.8 million job opportunities and reduce more than 10 billion tonnes of CO2 emission globally by 2020. China has made significant progress in developing and utilizing wind energy as a result of more than 10 years’ effort. By the end of 2003, 40 wind farms had been established and 1042 units of WTG installed with total capacity of 567.02 MW, ranking the tenth largest wind power country.

Overcapacity in China – Causes, Impacts and Recommendations

Abstract Overcapacity is a blight on China’s industrial landscape, affecting dozens of industries and wreaking far-reaching damage on the global economy in general, and China’s economic growth in particular. Yet it is a strangely under-studied and seldom-examined phenomenon. In the Summer and Autumn of 2009, the European Chamber and Roland Berger Strategy Consultants set out to examine to what extent overcapacity harms China’s economic development and contributes to rising trade tensions, and to provide suggestions on how this increasingly urgent problem could be addressed. The study will look at how this problem is affecting several key industries, and ask what are the specific drivers of overcapacity in these sectors. The industries examined in detail are: Steel, Aluminium, Cement, Chemicals, Refining and Wind Power Equipment.

Preparation Work for a 100 MW Pilot Offshore Windfarm in Hangzhouwan in Zhengjian

Abstract The project is one of the sub-grant projects in the first ground of wind power competitive grants. Through the establishment of wind tower at the Hangzhou Bay, the wind resource was assessed, and the pre-feasibility study report of 100MW wind farm was prepared; the typhoon influence was analyzed and forecasted, and the feasibility of the project was demonstrated, which provides the technical support for the 100MW wind power project at Hangzhou Bay. The Hangzhou Bay 100MW project is the first offshore wind power project developed independently by the China Guangdong Nuclear Wind Power Company. The successful implementation of the project provides the rich experience of practical operation for the follow-up overall planning of the Hangzhou Bay project and even the wind power development of the entire southeast coast of China; Thus the development as a whole of the China Guangdong Nuclear Offshore Wind Power projects can be achieved.
