Basic Structure of China's First General Contract Offshore Wind Power Project Completed

Updated: 2019-06-04

The last of the 36 piles of the Wailuo Offshore Wind Farm in Zhanjiang, also referred as the Wailuo Project, were sunk on May 20, marking completion of the basic structure of the wind power plant.

Located in the offshore area of the East of Xinliao Island and Wailuo of Zhanjiang, Guangdong province, the Wailuo project is the first large megawatt offshore wind power project in the province.

China Energy Engineering Group Guangdong Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd. (GEDI) contracted to install the 36 single power generators that can produce 5.5 megawatts once the blowers are added to the piles.

The largest diameter and the heaviest weight of each pile for the blowers are seven meters and 1,000 tons. When the blowers are installed, more than 500 million kWh of electricity can be produced per year, which means an annual reduction of about 170,000 tons of coal - 350,000 tons of carbon and 80 tons of sulfur dioxide.

Therefore, the project will play a role in energy-saving, environmental protection and resource structural optimization.
