China's wind power generators equipment localization rate of 90%

In 2010, China's wind power generators equipment localization rate of 90%. In 2004, that is, "Renewable Energy Law" promulgated in the previous year, this figure is only 10%.

In seven years time, China's wind power equipment wind turbines manufacturers industry developed by leaps and bounds. Since 2005, China's wind power installed capacity doubling every year increase in installed capacity in 2010 to add 18 million kilowatts, a total installed capacity of over 40 million kilowatts, ranking first in the world. Sinovel, Goldwind, Dongfang Electric installed capacity of three new companies to enter the global top 10.

Denmark renowned consultancy MAKE released the report said, "The rapid rise of Chinese manufacturers are changing the pattern of global wind power industry, 2011 to 2016, the Chinese market will account for 38% of installed capacity market around."

In the global perspective, China's wind power equipment manufacturing industry in the following areas worth noting:

The first is scale. "Eleventh Five-Year" period, China's wind power installed capacity to double growth for six consecutive years, from the end of 2005 of 1.2 million kilowatts, up to the end of 2010 of 42.3 million kilowatts. Has powers beyond the traditional European wind power in Denmark, Germany and the United States has the world's number one, becoming the world's installed capacity of the country.

In 2010, Sinovel new wind power installed capacity of 4.38 million kilowatts, accounting for 11.1 percent global market share, ranking second in the world; Goldwind new wind power installed capacity of 3.73 million kilowatts, ranking fourth in the world; Dongfang Electric ranked seventh. The three companies also account for nearly 60 percent of domestic market share, reflecting the concentration of China's wind power equipment market and ever-increasing trend.

Chinese wind power equipment manufacturing industry from a wind generator manufacturers relatively backward jumped to a strong competitor in the global position. Cost per kW is also from the "Eleventh Five-Year" initial 7000 yuan dropped to 4,000 yuan, a drop of 40%. Fans gradually improved supply of key components, including fan blades, gear boxes, bearings, motor, inverter and other key components manufacturers in the country has.

The second is technology. Through the introduction of another new starting point, our fan business to break the foreign enterprises to MW-class wind turbine technology monopoly current Sinovel, Goldwind, Dongfang Electric, Hunan Electric, Ming Yang and other seven companies are equipped with MW wind turbine design and manufacture of key technical capacity; building a high level of laboratory and test platform to develop wind power technology, professional personnel, formed a relatively complete system of independent research and development; fan blades, rack, wheel hub, casing and so have the independent production capacity.

Offshore wind power industry, wind power is the most cutting-edge field. At present, China has built in Shanghai, the world's first non-European offshore wind farm, and has been success and power generation. These fans by the Sinovel production, the company has developed China's first 6 MW offshore wind turbine, which is China's first self-developed, have complete independent intellectual property rights, global technology leader in grid-friendly wind power units, making China become the second to Germany after the independent production unit capacity of 6 MW wind turbine countries.

Almost from scratch, in just a few years from small wind turbines to large, the Chinese wind power equipment company by leaps and bounds. Why?

The first is the current situation dictates. In renewable energy, wind power due to the more mature technology, better economy is considered the most promising renewable energy. According to the China Academy of Meteorological Sciences proven, China's wind energy reserves of 3.226 billion kilowatts total, ranking first in the world, which can be developed and the use of wind energy reserves of 10 million kilowatts, is greater than the reserves of hydropower resources. Meanwhile, China's equipment manufacturing industry has a good basis for the development of wind turbine manufacturing base better.

Second, policy support. In 2005, China's "Renewable Energy Law" was promulgated on the rapid development of China's fan industry door.

In July, as supporting the introduction of the policy requirements, starting in 2006, wind power equipment localization rate to reach 70% or more, does not meet the requirements of domestic construction of wind farms are not allowed. Subsequently, China has issued "to guide the development of the renewable energy industry directory", "to promote the implementation of wind power industry views", etc., and full access by the wind power tax incentives, direct subsidies and other policies to promote the development of large wind turbine manufacturing industry.

Once again, the efforts of all parties. At present, China's wind turbines equipment manufacturing companies before the new capacity of 10 met the new capacity market share of 87%. After many years of technology accumulation and capital investment, domestic wind turbine mainstream technology commonly used in today's world, the unit capacity increased significantly. Some central and western regions with the largest wind power development, and increased the pace of industrial restructuring.

Experts said that the future of China's wind power industry opportunities and challenges, to achieve by the wind power wind power to a power shift from the pursuit of industrial development to the pursuit of quality and speed of shift from the pursuit of the amount of wind power installed capacity to pursue a shift from centralized large-scale development to large-scale changes in both the development and distributed development, from a land-based wind power onshore and offshore wind power to the comprehensive development of change. This means that China's wind power equipment manufacturing industry will be shifted over the past few years, the rapid development of a more healthy development. "1025" period, will be more scientific and rational norms and the gradual development of wind power industry to address the constraints of deep-seated problems.

Currently some of our core components of the fan die casting manufacturing industry continue to rely on foreign products. "1025" period, to capture the bearing, control systems, communication devices and other core components of R & D and manufacturing difficulties, to establish a complete industrial chain, the key to the future development of the industry. Moreover, it should pay close attention to the establishment of appropriate support services network. At the same time, enterprises should further increase the "going out" pace. Sinovel in the United States, Canada, Spain, Australia, Brazil and aluminum die casting other countries to establish subsidiaries, wind technology, Dongfang Electric and other companies are increasing overseas market expansion efforts. The future, global market strategy should be in China's wind power equipment business development strategy to occupy a more important position.
