Investing in wind power to stimulate the development of offshore wind power

Posted by admin on 六月 26th, 2011

According to reports, Chief Minister of Scotland Alex  Germany has said it would take 70 million pounds of funding to stimulate the development of offshore wind power industry and create jobs. Salmond said Scotland’s ports and docks will provide a total of about 70 million pounds of financial support to help solve the sea “green economy” by the funding gap faced by the billions, and create about 28,000 jobs.

It is reported that money will be used to help Scotland’s offshore wind farm to port and upgrade equipment to cope with the construction and installation of large offshore wind farms face enormous challenges. “We have a rich natural and cultural resources, the need for strong political will for a green energy revolution to create a sustainable economy, and reduce Europe’s carbon dioxide emissions.” Salmond on 2 November in Glasgow’s UK Renewable Energy annual conference.

Salmond pointed out that the £ 70 million investment will help “attract” more private money into port construction. Among them, Dundee, Edinburgh Leith Harbour and Hong Kong and other places most likely to receive financial support. It is reported that a move in the next 10 years, Scotland to create about 70 billion pounds of production value and nearly 2.8 million jobs. The next 10 years, is expected to coast across the UK will wind generators have about 7,000 wind turbines in use. Scottish wind power project investment capital is expected to account for 40% of the total investment the UK. According to the investment agency Scottish Enterprise estimated that Scotland has 11 green energy projects needed to upgrade, about 222 million pounds of funding.

October 2011, the British Ministry of Energy and Climate Change announced for port and construction of wind farms to invest about 60 million pounds. Salmond said that Scotland most of the investment funds will “immediately open to the enterprise,” while the United Kingdom Ministry of Energy and Climate Change funds will be put in place in April next year.

However, some insiders point out that the recent Salmond published a series of lectures on green energy, these are his publicity wrist, trying to fight the Scottish renewable energy industry aircraft carrier, while allowing the Scottish Government to become the wind turbines manufacturers world’s renewable energy one of the leaders, practical action to be tested.

September 2011, Salmond has also raised a very strict green power target, by 2020 the total consumption of green electricity for 80%, and announced that Scotland can be achieved by 2025 100 percent of its electricity from renewable energy.

Some analysts believe that the Salmond is only “second best.” He vertical wind turbines has made the European Investment Bank and other financial institutions with the help of a large Scottish “green investment bank”, with a total investment of at least 3.6 billion pounds. Salmond thought can get the support of the Scottish minister George Osborne, the Ministry of Finance from Scotland’s fossil fuel home wind generator energy returned £ 190 million in taxes, the money used to start the green investment bank to help Scotland to regeneration port and infrastructure projects. But ultimately did not adopt Nasar Mond Treasury’s opinion, but decided to maintain its original plan, the money the Scottish Government as obtained from the British Government as part of the overall subsidy.

The end of 2010, China’s total wind power installed capacity reached 44.73 million kilowatts, more than the United States ranked first in the world. New installed capacity of 18.93 million kilowatts of them, to keep the world rankings.

Although high-speed land-based wind power development, China’s offshore wind power has just begun. Shanghai East Sea Bridge in 2010 with the offshore wind power and small wind turbines Rudong intertidal and a number of demonstration projects into production, China’s offshore wind power capacity has reached 142,500 kilowatts, representing total installed wind power capacity of less than 1% .

Water Resources Planning and Design in the water jump spring seems easy to deputy chief engineer of China’s offshore wind power development prospects are substantial. This includes national attention and a wealth of offshore wind power resources.

In addition, compared to onshore wind, offshore wind power near the load center of traditional, easy power-consumptive, eliminating the need for long-distance transmission troubles. In the current three North (Northwest, Northeast and North China) region experienced “home electricity” awkward time, this is particularly tempting.

Economics of offshore wind power is a major stimulus to increase. 2010 China 100 thousands Wahe first upwind power concession in the bid price per unit of 0.6235 yuan to 0.7370 yuan between, over the East China Sea Bridge project 0.978 yuan per kWh of electricity price significantly lower, close to the land-based wind power bid level.

In many favorable conditions, easy to jump wind turbine generator spring that in 2015 China’s offshore wind power installed capacity is expected to reach 500 million kilowatts in 2020 is expected to reach 30 million kilowatts.

British wind turbines blade project start research and development

Posted by admin on 六月 15th, 2011

Recently, the UK Energy Technologies Institute (theEnergyTechnologiesInstitute, ETI) started a project to solicit industry developers to submit development of offshore wind farms to the larger, more cost-effective proposals for wind turbine blades, to design, build and test large 90-meter blades, can be used for wind power generation capacity of 8 to 10 megawatts of wind turbines. According to ETI’s statements, and the leaves will be almost a landmark in London as high as Big Ben. In contrast, offshore wind farms currently used turbine blades 40 to 60 meters long. The project’s goal is to manufacture and testing of the end of 2014 the first leaf, when ready for production, ETI, said it will invest about 10 million pounds project (about 16 million U.S. dollars).
The construction of giant wind turbines need to use more materials and development of larger production facilities, can produce some of the giant, which means more overhead. But David Clarke, CEO of ETI, said construction for the offshore wind farm wind turbine is actually more cost-effective, can help lower prices. Mr. Clark said that the start of this project is based on their early research that the horizontal axis turbines may be the most cost-effective range of 8 to 10 megawatts, increasing the leaf size than to expand the generating units are usually more effective. He believes that investment in the project, mainly to develop more leaves, the wind industry is more efficient turbines to pave the way for a key step, but also help reduce electricity costs.
ETI is the British government and vertical wind turbines six companies created a public-private partnership companies, including Shell, described earlier, BP, Caterpillar, EDF Energy, E. ON and Rolls Royce company, to large-scale development of technology to help the UK within the European Union reached a binding target, which asked the British in 2020 and 15% of its energy from renewable energy sources.

Chinese wind turbines manufacturers are racing

Posted by admin on 六月 5th, 2011

Chinese wind turbine manufacturers are racing to develop increasingly larger turbines in 2011.

The latest progress in this area has been made by Huayi Electric, a leading Chinese wind turbine generator  manufacturer, which announced that it will shift about one-quarter of its CNY 190 million in funds raised from non publicly issued stocks to strengthen the development of its 6 MW capacity wind turbines.

Huayi said the earmarked funds of CNY 45 million were previously planned to be used to develop 5 MW turbines.

In late May 2011, China’s largest wind turbine manufacturer Sinovel announced that it had produced a 6 MW prototype that can be used on onshore, offshore and inter tidal wind farms, the first of its kind in the country.

Huayi’s strategy of developing even larger wind turbines is based on an agreement signed on May 10th 2011 with the Netherlands’ MECAL BV, a famous wind turbine designer, to jointly develop 6 MW offshore wind turbines.

Under their agreement, Huayi and MECAL BV will complete a 6 MW prototype for use on offshore wind farms before March 2013. Huayi will have exclusive ownership and use of the turbines. The prototypes will be installed in September 2013.

In addition to Sinovel and Huayi, other leading Chinese wind generator  manufacturers, including Goldwind and Guodian United Power, have set out to develop 6 MW turbines.

In November 2010, Goldwind announced that it would invest CNY 550 million in its branch in east China’s Jiangsu province to develop 6 MW direct drive permanent magnetic Horizontal wind turbines. It will launch a 6 MW prototype in early 2012.

Sinovel previously announced that it is engaged in developing even larger 10 MW turbines, without offering any details on the project. At present, 1.5 MW wind turbines are the most common types of turbines used in the Chinese wind power industry. China has only a few turbine manufacturers capable of producing 3 MW and 5 MW turbines.

6 MW wind turbines produced in the domestic large fan into the business

Posted by admin on 六月 1st, 2011

From Sinovel Technology (Group) Co., Ltd. has learned that its self-developed China’s first 6 MW wind turbine has officially produced. This also marks the single largest capacity as a domestic wind turbine of the formal entry into the commercial stage. Statistics show that the world no more than a grade 6 MW and fans enter the commercial phase, only two companies in Germany are running two to three prototype testing phase. In the wind power machine manufacturing enterprises, for the Chinese launch of the Danish company Vestas wind turbine up to 3 MW, Gamesa of Spain in April 2011 the company officially produced 4.5 MW wind turbine, steam and East Goldwind Currently 2.5 MW models introduced, the joint force at the end of 2010 is down 3 MW wind turbine, Hunan Electric shares in March 2011 announced a 5-megawatt direct-drive offshore small  wind turbines formal referral. The launch of the wind turbine is China’s first independently developed, have complete independent intellectual property rights and technology leadership grid-friendly wind turbine generator . Previously, the low pressure across the fan and reactive power compensation has been considered the difficulties in wind power, wind power as the national standard as to define a new threshold, the two standards will become the new benchmark for another fan. With the development of wind power industry, in particular the promotion of offshore windmill power technology, large-scale wind turbine has become an inevitable trend. The unit can be applied to land, sea, intertidal resources in a variety of environments and different wind conditions, the wind field.
