Wind Power Scenario in China:
As per current global scenario, China is the second largest producer of wind power, after the
United States with 25.8 GW of installed capacity (16.3% of total). With its large land mass and
long coastline, China has exceptional wind resources. As per the revised estimate published by
China Meteorological Administration, China has a potential to develop 2,380 GW of Wind Power.
(Based on measurements at 50m height)
Policies to stimulate domestic manufacturing:
♦ April 2008— The Chinese Ministry of Finance issued a new regulation on tax refunds for im‐
porting large wind turbines (2.5 MW and above) and key components.
♦ August 2008— The Ministry of Finance issued another incentive policy on funding support for
the commercialization of wind power generation equipment. According to this regulation, for
all domestic brands (with over 51% Chinese investment) the first 50 wind turbines over 1 MW
will be rewarded with RMB 600/KW (60 Euro) from the government.
♦ November 2008— The Chinese Government announced a $586 Bn stimulus package, a sub‐
stantial proportion of which was allocated to renewable energy with the preference over do‐
mestic products.
♦ March 2009— The Chinese Government restricted the use of turbines below 1.0 MW for
most wind projects. The new rule however has excluded 850 kW design which is apopular size
for European manufacturers.

Increasingly intensive competition for turbine manufacturers:
More than 20 new turbine manufacturers entered the Chinese market during 2008‐09, bringing
the total number of manufacturers in China to 70. Demand in the decade 2011‐2020 is fore‐
casted to be 80 GW, or about 8 GW per year. The top three manufacturers in China, Goldwind,
Sinovel and DEC (Dongfang Electric), having an annual manufacturing capacity of 4 GW, and the
international brands manufacturing in China (Vestas, Suzlon, Gamesa, Nordex and Repower) also
have a similar capacity.

companies in the world. The Company's major products include 600 KW, 750 KW, 1.2 MW and
1.5MW series wind turbine sets. Through joint effort with Germany based WTG manufacturer
Vensys, Goldwind is also working on a 2.5 MW direct drive‐pitch regulation‐stall WTG systems.
Zhejiang Windey: Technically supported by the UK Garrad Hassan and Partners Ltd (GH), Zhejiang
Windey is into manufacturing of 1.5 MW double feedback, shift variable and constant frequency
wind turbine model. Windey contracted with South German TüV to conduct prototype evalua‐
tion. The company is also preparing wind turbine test activities and expected to be completed
final evaluation by June 2010.
Dongfang Electric: Technically supported by the Austria Windtec, Dongfang Turbine is working on
developing a 2.5MW double feedback, shift variable, and constant frequency wind turbine
model. It is one of the largest enterprises in China engaging in the manufactures of generating
equipments and the contracts of generating station projects.

Shanghai Electric: Shanghai Electric Power Generation Equipment Co., Ltd. (SEPG) Turbine Works
is the first turbine manufacturer in China. As a joint effort with German Aerodyn, Shanghai Elec‐
tric is working on a 2MW double feedback, shift control and constant frequency wind turbine sys‐
tem with Chinese IPR ownership. During the project implementation, Shanghai Electric intro‐
duced the Aerodyn advanced wind turbine design software system.
A‐Power Energy: A‐Power Energy Generation Systems Ltd. is a Nasdaq‐listed alternative energy
company based in Shenyang, an industrial hub in Northeast China. With 17 projects completed
since 2003 and more than 10 currently in‐process, they are the largest provider of distributed
power generation systems, focusing on energy‐efficient and environmentally friendly projects of
25MW to 400MW both in China and overseas.
Baoding Huide: Baoding Huide having registered capital of RMB¥150,000,000 and assembly pro‐
duction line of 12,000 m2 was the first Chinese enterprise that have exported MW class Wind
Turbines to the US. Baoding Huide is having production capability of more than 1500 units per
annum. Currently the company is producing 1.0 MW and 2.0 MW WTGs and 3.0 MW offshore
WTGs are under the stage of R&D.
Beijing Beizhong: Beijing BEIZHONG Steam Turbine Generator Co., Ltd (BSTG), founded in 1958,
is an electrical power equipment manufacturer specialized in the production and sale of thermal
power generating units (including steam turbines, turbo‐generators and their auxiliaries), wind
turbine generator sets, wind power generators as well as large and medium AC motors. Till date
around 100 units of 2 MW WTGs are in commercial operation.
