Vestas Wind Expands in China

Vestas is the 800# Gorilla in the room for China Wind and revenue growth from China to Vestas will be immense in coming future years!

Vestas wind production in china has increased significantly, and vestas wind system is a company to watch. Vestas is number one worldwide when it comes to wind power, and the company recently announced plans to open the largest integrated wind production base to date. The base will be built in TEDA, which stands for Tianjin Economic Technological Development Area. Vestas wind production in china is just a further expansion for the company, and proof that when it comes to wind power vestas can not be beat. Vestas wind systems started in TEDA in the year 2006, with a single blade factory, and it has continuously been expanding since then. The new expansion includes a control system factory, a machining factory, generator factories, blade factories, and a supply and logistics center which is new as well.

Due to the increase in vestas wind production in china, the company will have a main integrated base, where the complete process is followed. This production base will be the largest one that the company has anywhere in the world, and a substantial amount of money is invested into the original facilities and the expansions. More than four hundred and forty million dollars in United States currency has been invested in the China production base by Vestas wind systems. The production capability will increase substantially once the expansion project is complete, and the base will be the center for production worldwide. Providing wind power to China, and the rest of the world, is what Vestas excels at, and why they are number one in this field.

  • again, NOBODY has a clue that APWR is going to build hydropower …….China has over 10,000 rivers perfect for hydropower small DPG model rivers……..24/7 base load power and green for China………..

    China already has half of the world’s largest dams, including the largest one Three Gorges dam, which is the world’s biggest hydroelectric station with estimated total capacity of around 22,500 MW once being completely functional. China gains 15 percent of its energy from hydropower and plans to at least double this amount by building new large hydroelectric dams, especially in Southwest China because rivers located in this area are ideal to harvest hydropower since many of these rivers are 2000 m above sea level and rich with water. Hydropower potential of southwest China is estimated to be about 500 GW. China is well aware that hydropower is only renewable energy sector that can be used on large scale within its borders and is therefore making large investments in hydropower sector in order to reduce coal dominance, especially because coal has very negative impact on the environment causing acid rains and air pollution.

    China’s exploitable hydroelectric resources are around 378 GW which is equivalent to annual power supply of 1.92 trillion kWh, and China wants to take advantage of these hydroelectric resources, especially since because of large economic growth China’s energy needs have constant growth and massive hydroelectric dams should satisfy this ever-growing need for energy. Suo Lisheng, Chinese vice-minister of water resources recently said on international seminar on hydropower how “China’s exploitable hydropower is equivalent to 50.7 billion tons of standard coal. “ And the main location for hydropower exploitation is Southwest China where certain recent statistic shows that hydropower plants will be built over several rivers: Nujiang, Lancang, Jinsha, Dadu, Yalong and Minjiang. Dadu river area has especially large potential to exploit hydropower resources, according to some studies 50 percent higher potential than the largest Three Gorges dam
