Slowing demand, along with recent windmill power price hikes and coal price caps, suggest a developing power shortage in the winter season could be less severe than anticipated.

The National Bureau of Statistics said electricity output increased 8.5%YoY to 371.3 billion kilowatt-hours last month or 12.38 billion kilowatt hours per day. Daily generation picked up from October when demand was at a seasonal trough between the summer and winter peaks.

For the first 11 months, power output gained 12%YoY to 4.19 trillion kilowatt-hours, higher than the total for 2010. By sources, output from coal-fired wind  power generators stations increased 9% on year the first single-digit growth since February while generation from hydropower plants staged its first increase in five months, gaining 6.3%YOy.

Last month’s output from nuclear power stations declined 6.7%.

The Chinese functionaries have asked the Pakistan government to award the contracts of both the projects to the Chinese companies without holding the International Competitive Bidding (ICB)s, but the authorities have showed their inability to this effect arguing it is difficult to set aside the rules of Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) while giving the contracts to the Chinese companies.

However, the Ministry of Water and Power has sent a summary seeking opinion of the Ministry of Law as to whether the PPRA rules are applicable or not in the jurisdiction of wind generators Azad Jummu and Kashmir (AJK) and if these are not applicable in the AJK, then Kohala hydropower would be awarded to a single Chinese party.

The authorities concerned told this to the head of the 10-member Chinese delegation Mr Cao Guanging, Chairman of the state owned China Three Gorges Project Corporation (CTGPC), during a meeting with the Federal Minister for Water and Power and Privatisation, Syed Naveed Qamar, held here on Tuesday, a senior official who attended the meeting told The News.

The Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda), however, asserted that PPRA rules were applicable since the feasibility studies, detailed engineering design and tender documents were fully financed out of public funds.

Wapda also argues that grounds of urgency do not exist so as to confer any waiver from the PPRA rules and the cost of the project worked out by the sponsor was higher by $344.32 million than cost estimations by Wapda. It desired the project to be offered through the ICB. This shows that the Ministry of Water and Power and Wapda are not on the same page on the said issues.

The PPIB said that since the project was being implemented on Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT) mode in the private sector within the territorial jurisdiction of the AJK, pursuant to the wind turbines of AJK Interim Constitution 1974, the AJK Council has the exclusive competence, powers and jurisdiction to exercise Executive Authority in relation to the subject of electricity.

The top Chinese officials were also told that the Ministry of Water and Power has also sought a waiver from the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) for the execution of 1,100MW Kohala Hydropower project through private sector under Power Generation Policy 2002.

The draft summary sought a waiver to the requirement of solicitation through advertisement as the project was awarded to CWE, a private company, pursuant to an MoU duly approved by the cabinet. The ECC has constituted a committee that decided that a reference be sent to the Ministry of Finance regarding applicability of the PPRA rules to the project and the PPIB to solicit feedback from the sponsor regarding option of first right of refusal in the ICB.

In compliance with the directions of the committee, Private Power and Infrastructure Board (PPIB) requested the sponsor for its views on first right of refusal and submitted a reference to the Ministry of Finance regarding applicability of the PPRA rules.

The sponsor strongly insisted that in the light of the commitments made by the government, the project be approved for further implementation at the earliest through the China International Water and Electric Corp (CWE).

“There’s a lot of development (of wind farms) across the United States,” he said. “Arizona is one of the slower states to bring them in.”
Besides providing renewable energy relatively inexpensively, industrial wind farms provide energy without using water, which is a precious commodity in many parts of the country, including Arizona, he said. Industrial wind power projects provide thousands of new jobs, tax revenue, payments to farmers and other forms of economic development.
Illinois has 12 industrial wind generating sites which Borgia describes as very large. Most turbines, including those in Navajo County, wind generate 1.5 megawatts MW of power. One megawatt, Borgia added, can power 250-300 homes. Iberdrola’s Dry Lake wind farm in Navajo County, the first wind energy generating project in Arizona, has about 30 turbines that can generate 45 MW, enough for 11-12,000 homes.
According to the IWEA Web site, Illinois is currently seeing a massive expansion in wind energy development. Its first wind farm was constructed in 2003, but by the end of 2009, Illinois had over 1,800 megawatts of wind generation capacity, enough to power approximately 500,000 homes with clean, emissions-free electricity.
In some of the counties that have large wind farms, the generators pay the highest property taxes of any industry or business, Borgia said.
Despite the thousands of MW of wind generator in the state, Borgia said Illinois is only about seventh in the top 10 wind power generating states. Although California was the first state to use large scale wind power, Texas now generates about four times that of California. Iowa and Minnesota also have large generating projects. In these states, hundreds of homes and businesses also use smaller wind turbines to produce electricity for their own use.
“There are often concerns about wind farms and they need to be in a rural or open area,” Borgia said. “And there has to be setbacks from roads and town limits.”
He said there is no proof that vibrations from wind turbines cause health problems. Although there is some noise involved, he added, it decreases exponentially the farther you get from the turbine. Often turbine noise is only slightly louder than the wind itself.
“As a country, we need wind energy. It is one of the only energy sources that doesn’t need to use water in its production. We will never be 100 percent dependent on wind power but it reduces pollution and also provides price stability for energy.”
It is expected that the Navajo county’s proposed wind farm ordinance will be discussed at the upcoming board of supervisors on Oct. 12.

The amount of wind power installed capacity planning is the biggest in Inner Mongolia: 2020 target of 28 million kilowatts, Baotou Ta-mao, Ulanqab auspicious, Xilinguole gray Teng Liang, and Chifeng and Tongliao are the main areas.

Although the draft does not open, but some parts of the wind power planning has confirmed the reliability of the draft. Zhangjiakou Municipal Development and Reform Commission, an official told our reporter, Hebei Province, in 2020 there should be 10 million kilowatts of  wind generators installed capacity.

However, the Bill to the figures seem to be somewhat conservative. As Bill mentions that “in 2011 in Hebei Province, four million kilowatts of wind power installed capacity”, in Zhangjiakou who officials seem somewhat underestimated, “Zhangjiakou in 2009 have built two million kilowatts, and 2010 may be 5 million kilowatts . ”

Gansu Province in 2015 wind power planning is more than 1200 MW, but the draft to “the amount of the total installed capacity of Gansu in 2020 provides a” 13 million kilowatts, “five years grew by only 1 million kilowatts is also somewhat conservative.

China Merchants Securities researcher Wang Sheng pointed out that, in fact, the domestic wind power developed rapidly, the state’s plan may be modified, “This may also be the new energy plan has not been introduced in the revitalization of the reasons for it.”

In 2008 China’s total installed wind power capacity has reached 12.21 million kilowatts, has completed two years ahead of the national “Eleventh Five-year” wind power development plan; 2007 “renewable energy sources and long-term development plan” has been put forward in 2020, the National Wind Power the total installed capacity of 3,000 MW target, but the target could be completed this year.

Conditions for development is limited

However, wind power development is not without bottlenecks, resource and grid problem is that the two major problems.

The Zhangjiakou Municipal Development and Reform Commission officials reminded the journalists, although in Zhangjiakou in 2020 to go to 10 million kilowatts installed capacity, but also the local wind resource of approximately 16 million kilowatts.

Inner Mongolia Electric Power (Group) Co., Ltd., general manager Zhang Fusheng has said that wind power in Inner Mongolia last winter and spring Restricted situation will be very serious, “requirements and network operation of wind power capacity has more than 4.3 million kilowatts, accounting for the maximum power supply load 27% of the power grid far exceeds the capacity of Inner Mongolia (China EPRI demonstration capacity of wind power in Inner Mongolia Power Grid 8% to 10%). ”

Wind power transmission link is not fully accessible

Hebei, the existing two main power grid system: Tianjin-Tangshan power grid in Southern Hebei Network (Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Xingtai, Cangzhou). The Zhangjiakou Municipal Development and Reform Commission officials said the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Power Network could not tolerate wind, and the future of Zhangjiakou may be issued by the wind into the Southern network, but now uncertain.

Gansu’s wind power will have to adopt a “Western Electric Delivery” approach to digest. Gansu Power Grid’s electricity load is now more than 800 megawatts of wind power generators installed capacity by 2010, the local capacity may be built is 500 million kilowatts, the power balance from the point of view, almost impossible to absorb wind power.

Gansu Provincial Power Company Wind Power Technology Center, a charge also told this reporter: “Gansu Province, a land wind power are difficult to digest, but should be in a larger context of the Northwest Power Grid where to strike a balance, involving areas including Shaanxi, Qinghai, etc. land, even to the central Sichuan, Hubei and Hunan regional transportation. ”

He said the next step is to direct the building of a base in Jiuquan, Gansu Province special high-pressure projects, wind power may go to East China and Jiangsu provinces and cities, “Of course, 500 million kilowatts of wind turbines can not, as thermal power, adequate, and this transmission side, the pressure smaller. If the wind unable to pronounce, but also can be taken to the extreme method of thermal power compression. “

< 2005 Nian 2 16, aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, "Kyoto Protocol" entry into force, to include new energy sources including wind power to replace thermal power generation to reduce carbon dioxide emissions has become a global consensus, countries around the world are scrambling to develop new wind energy sources. In solar, biomass, and many other new energy industry, wind power industry is a national priority to develop the location. Wind power as a clean, renewable energy, more and more countries around the world attention. Yun amount of its huge, global wind energy is about 2.74 * 109MW, of which wind energy can be used for 2 * 107MW, than the Earth can be development and utilization of water volume 10 times bigger. Global wind-power generation are to 35% annual growth rate, Germany, the United States, Italy and other countries up to 50%, become a development trend, the global wind generators annual output has exceeded 5.0 billion.

< European Wind Energy Union (EWEA) 2004 Annual Report states: By 2010, wind power generation will account for 5.5% of European electricity demand; to 2020, you can 12%. Boss in wind power in Germany has been more than 70 private wind power development companies, the German domestic wind power by the end of 2005 the total wind generators installed capacity 17,574 units, with a total installed capacity of 18,428 MW, wind power accounted for 4.3% of the total generating capacity. Germany plans to wind power generation in 2050 the total generating capacity of 50%. Germany is the experience of wind power reached more than 50 countries and regions.

< 2005, China's National People's Congress passed China's first of a new energy legislation "Renewable Energy Law." Actively developing wind power has become our country to achieve sustainable development, ecological and environmental protection a basic national policy of one of the means, which will help improve China's energy structure, increase the quality of energy to overcome energy shortages, power shortages to eliminate bottlenecks.

< focus on the development of wind energy new energy for China, not only to change the energy structure of China is of great significance, but also to enhance the energy consumption of very large China's international image of great significance. Over the past year in the Chinese energy industry broke out again and again the vicious events: coal mine explosion in Shanxi, Jilin, explosions and so on petrochemicals. These are to a large extent of the damage China's image in the international community good. In December 2005, the British Thames Times published an article "Pollution in China," criticized China's energy policy.
