May 18, long-awaited, delayed several times the first batch of offshore wind power concession tender exercise launched. The tender of the four projects, all in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, with a total installed capacity reached 100 million kilowatts, equivalent to 10 East China Sea Bridge wind farm, close to 20 billion yuan investment.
But large parts of planning than reported, this is only drop in the ocean. According to reports, only Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian Province, several offshore wind power by 2015, the total installed capacity planning is about 10.1 million kilowatts on up, while other provinces are also targets more than one million kilowatts.
With such a large offshore wind power generator market than businesses generally agreed that land-based wind power has been completed enclosure.
“Development of the local land resources have been depleted, so now is to go offshore development on land unless it is to the original units are removed, or else you have to go to the sea development.” Xue told reporters .
Germany ENERGY EFFICIENCY consultant Meike Waechter told our reporter, Germany 5 MW turbines are mature and become mainstream, the main reason is to save the sea to develop more land.
In fact, in addition to abundant resources, offshore wind power compared to land-based wind power is also expected to have a higher gross margin.
It is learned that the price of domestic wind turbine has been presented from 2007 downward trend, by the end of 2009 reached 5,000 yuan / kW. News said the companies now offer generally lower than 5,000 yuan / kW. Business people have said, “The price has been close to the bottom line.”
The land-based wind power equipment market compared to the fierce competition, offshore wind power to show some advantages, such as the entry barrier higher, more expensive equipment, and because close to offshore wind power centers, the Internet is also a higher price. With such consensus, the land of wind generators manufacturer equipment manufacturers are willing to enter the offshore wind power Xiaojiannaodai “Arena.”
“China in the East China Sea Bridge wind farm sharp 3-megawatt installation, has used the country’s top ship.” Xue explained, no matter how much capacity the unit is to spend the same effort to install, the greater capacity, Cost-sharing units will be down, so suitable for large offshore wind power capacity of the fan unit. “If you can do 20 megawatts of fans, it better.”
