China's Wind Power Scale Leaps to the World's First

    According to the report "Who is more powerful in wind power development in China and the United States in 2010?" According to the news of the Forum, China has become the world''s largest wind power installed country, as of the end of 2010, China''s annual wind power installed capacity reached 16 million kilowatts, cumulative installed capacity reached 41.827 million kilowatts, for the first time more than the United States, ranking first in the world.

    It is understood that since 2005, China''s total installed capacity of wind power has doubled for five consecutive years. In 2009, China surpassed Germany with a total cumulative installed capacity of 25.8 million kilowatts, becoming the second largest country in the world in terms of total installed capacity. However, there is still a gap of nearly 10 million kilowatts compared to the first ranked United States. In 2010, China''s wind power development momentum was rapid, with the total installed capacity increasing by about 62% compared to the previous year. The newly added capacity in the United States is only about 5 million kilowatts. For the first time, China has reached the position of world number one.

    Li Junfeng, secretary-general of the renewable Energy Professional Committee of the China Association for Comprehensive Utilization of Resources, said that this is a milestone in the development of renewable energy in China - China has become the world''s largest consumer and producer of wind power equipment. Wind power has become a bright spot in China''s economic development and has the potential to dominate the world market.

    Yang Ailun, Greenpeace''s climate and energy campaign manager, said that in this round of global green race, China won the first opportunity, which once again proved that China has the potential to become a global renewable energy superpower, but the proportion of wind power in the overall energy mix is still very low, and the bottleneck of wind power Internet access has not been broken. In order to develop from a large wind power installation country to a large wind power utilization country, China still needs to continue to play a leading role in the global clean energy revolution.

    However, both organizations said that China''s wind power development is still facing practical challenges such as grid bottlenecks and policy guidance. The two institutions issued the "China wind Power Development Report 2010" said that wind power Internet access has become one of the biggest problems facing the development of wind power in the future, and to solve this problem, China needs to take a series of measures as soon as possible, including clarifying the responsibility of power grid enterprises to consume wind power and reward and punishment mechanism.

    Li Junfeng said that the quality level of China''s wind power equipment, including equipment integrity rate, power generation capacity, etc., needs to be improved, although China''s wind power installed capacity exceeded the United States in 2010, but the power generation is only 50 billion KWH, still lower than the United States.
