Harnessing the power of wind to generate electricity
As the world's second-largest economy and one that is rapidly expanding, China is in need of renewable solutions quickly and at scale. Despite its historic dependence on coal, the country's energy sector is taking huge strides following its president's call for an 'energy revolution'. Energy policies are placing large emphasis on renewable solutions with wind power at the forefront and centre of these technologies.

Located in within Wulanchabu City in China’s Autonomous Region of Inner Mongolia, this project involves the construction and operation of 315 wind turbines that generate clean green energy for the North China Power Grid. By displacing fossil fuel-generated energy the project effectively reduces greenhouse gas emissions and contributes towards China’s transition to a low-carbon future.
In addition to environmental benefits, of emission reductions and weening the country's dependence on fossil fuels, the project boosts the local economy through job creation. As the wind turbines are manufactured in China, jobs are created at multiple stages, during manufacturing, installation, and the operation of the project - providing future-proof opportunities that is helping to drive China's transition to renewable energy sources.
