Construction intelligent power grid, nurturing the core technology, developing scenery complementary… As the nation’s largest wind power base, hard to solve one of zhangjiakou lags behind the installed power grid construction speed and wind turbines manufacturers lack of core technology, wind lack of effective utilization of the resources sustainable development of restricting wind power industry “bottleneck” problems, the next five years, the city will invest 300 billion yuan on promoting wind power industry, is expected to file by 2015 upgrade, the accumulative total installed capacity will reach 600 million kilowatts, and all realization grid.
Construction intelligent grid, cracked wind power output “bottleneck”. These five years, zhang wind power installed capacity to 345 million kilowatts, was five years ago, became a national 69 times. The first city of wind-power installed The wind of rapid development, grid problem becomes increasingly prominent. The city will wind development and supporting power grid construction overall planning, state grid corporation actively support. At present, the state grid corporation has decided to spend $4.2 billion, as the starting point to the construction of zhangjiakou thousand volts 1,000 high-voltage ac power transmission project. In the future five years, the city will add more than 35 kv and 39 seats, capacity 5734 substation transmission lines, with new signs voltammetric, intelligent substation quantity 1271 kilometers will reach 10 seats, completely finished dam millions of kw wind power base supporting send out engineering.
Nurturing the core technology, improve manufacturing competitiveness. Using the huge market advantages, attract advanced wind power equipment manufacturing enterprises and advanced technology, through the “engineering” ascension overall competitiveness. Global engineering machinery 50 strong enterprises –, trinity, the subsidiaries of trinity zhangjiakou industrial park, complete mastery of the wind power equipment overall, generators, growth machine, automatic control system, leaf five fields such as core technologies, has signed with the United States at trinity electric fan is worth 100 billion yuan of export orders, the equipment industrial this order will cent the 30%. With the current world most advanced research and home wind power generator test center of wind power — China electrical science institute national wind power research test center in some experimental bases in the city in operation, realized the first have the power grid adaptive detection wind power test base and so on four world first, for further enhance wind manufacturing level created the foundation.
Variable investment promotion for elected dealer, strengthen the allocation of resources. Facing the prosperous development of the wind power, some enterprise “horses circle wind generators” and later “circle” and motionless, lead to the wind resource configuration is not reasonable. Therefore, the city’s unified management of wind resources, improving access enterprise threshold and measured wind expires who failed to provisions of the enterprise, the real practice, will withdraw their rights are quality resources priority equipped for strength and business is good, the construction speed of big enterprises, large group, avoid the waste of resources of wind power. So far, only to have 4 shangyi tapping the electricity investment enterprise in violation of the regulations, because by strong, big companies and groups instead.
Occupy industry front, developing scenery complementary. Wind power by the seasons, time and other factors provide larger, can’t stable power, is caused extremely easily grid volatility. In this respect takes the lead in zhangjiakou probes. At present, the total investment of about 150 billion yuan of demonstration projects of national scenery already at the dam reservoir, the Horizontal wind turbines project was launched, the world’s largest collection wind power and photovoltaic energy, energy storage and transmission engineering four-in-one renewable energy projects, can make capacity per unit time is a relatively stable control in an interval, reduce the influence of power grid, and provide for wind power realization useful references for long distance transportation. Meanwhile, ShangYi full well 10 megawatts guohua, datang 5-month-construction scenery complementary new energy source reinvesting nine together wind-light complementary, the new energy KangBao power hebei 10 megawatts grid (pv) power and so on many scenery complementary program also under construction.

For a long time, people think offshore wind power cost is high, above the cost of land wind two to three times, but the European commission analysts pointed out, the cost will further down.
HeZe high in Europe wind energy association, says nuclear power at the annual meeting of the major security problems faced by letting people start attention home wind generator and renewable energy sources such as solar. She said: “Europe now has 143 seat nuclear and of course they would not be canceled. But if you want to build new nuclear plants, people will die because of accidents home wind turbines and Japan have scruples.” She thinks, Japan the nuclear leak accident will let all eyes “automatic” to renewable energy.
As long as the eu can finish by 2020 emissions by 20% and increase the proportion of renewable energy goals, 20% of eu countries have the right to decide their energy composition.
According to HeZe high participation in promoting this month issued by 2050, as long as each member emissions reduction roadmap, then existing policy execution by 2020 the eu will be able to achieve emissions target of 25 percent.
Japan’s nuclear leak accident happens, China and Germany are announced stop examining and approving new nuclear power units project. And in contrast, Europe’s biggest nuclear operators, the French electricity company argues that, to build a new generation of nuclear power units UK the project should not be scrapped.
The company’s U.K. President Vincent riva this (Vincent’s art Rivaz) said: “we definitely should according to Japan after a nuclear accident” issued by the nuclear domestic wind turbines facilities, adjust the investigation report on the schedule, but to build nuclear power plant to build nuclear power plant should be treated no delay. Japan of incidents of nuclear power doesn’t change Britain needs.”
Riva this also said the French electricity company will meet with local institutions, the siting begin consultations. He said: “local government is determined to promote our nuclear wind power generator project, we really should learn from Japan accident lessons, but not so the nuclear power plant construction progress is delayed.

No doubt, the recent Japanese nuclear leakage accident to the influence of global nuclear safety, said a worried, which lets the future development of nuclear power cast a shadow. Thus, as the fossil energy of new alternative energy, wind power has become the important choice after after solar energy.
According to the national energy board 30 in jinan introduces, at present, China’s wind power industry enters a fast development stage, has become the first wind power. But industry worry, if the core parts research and wind surf the Internet, will become the slow progress restricting our wind power industry developing fast bottleneck.
In recent years, China’s wind energy industry and realize the installed double, years of growth. The shandong province held in 30, with wind power industry equipment manufacturing development summit BBS, workers believe department officials cited China’s renewable energy learn latest statistics, it is said, now the country’s total installed 4450 wind to last year alone million kilowatts, new 1192 million kilowatts.
At present, China and the United States as this round of wind development in China, and wind power market locomotive of development speed is breathtaking more. To wind machine production leading enterprise sinovel company, for example, last year the company produces the platform, installed capacity / 438 million kilowatts, ranked second.
But industry thinks, at present, China’s wind power industry problems are also apparent. Such as, wind machine factory is overmuch, and like bearing, control system, and other key parts to be r&d ascension. Due to some key components depend on foreign imports, our country every production a fan, pay higher royalties. If the future mass production without their own blower, core technology, our country development cost will be enormous.
At present, our country and wind power equipment related listed companies have more than 20 home, among them, the wind machine equipment suppliers have technology, sinovel wind power, junwu dongfang electric, Shanghai electric, tianshun wind, etc. Some other listed companies in respectively main bearing, gear box, leaf, converter, tower, generators, yaw system, central control system, electronic control system, hydraulic system, the wheel hub, the engine etc have wind-power equipment parts certain advantages. With the rapid growth of the wind ZhuangJiLiang wind-power equipment parts manufacturer, the above will be shorter time breakthrough development.

March 24, 2011 China’s new energy grid international summit, the Chinese renewable energy institute wind professional committee ShiPengFei said vice chairman by 2020, China’s wind generators eight million kilowatt wind power base of the total installed capacity will reach 150 million kilowatts, plus other local wind power, the total installed capacity of over 2 million kilowatts.
He said the eight locations in gansu jiuquan, xinjiang hami, hebei, jilin, eastern Inner Mongolia, west Inner Mongolia, jiangsu, shandong and wind energy resources are rich regions.
“One xinjiang planning in hami southeast, three pond lake and MaoHu three regional construction in the wind, by 2020, reach 10.8m kw, the Internet is about 260 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity.” ShiPengFei said.
He says, in west jilin planning by 2020 up to 27 million kilowatts, wind power is about 540 Internet billion kilowatt-hours. Planning to be constructed 10 500KV pressurization station, will wind power generator into jilin and northeast grid.
In addition, he says, by 2020 Inner Mongolia autonomous region planning by 2020 up to 5830 million kilowatts, MengXi 3830 million kilowatts, and find east 2,000 million kilowatts, wind power online about 1,300 billion kilowatt-hours.
He thinks that, while China wind turbines has is wind power but also not wind power, compared with the developed countries, still have a large gap. The future of China’s wind industry manufacturers should strive to improve product quality and independent research and development capacity, through the market competition, and realizing the balance. In addition, developers will find out from pursuing an installed capacity battery for Internet access to change the whole period, lowest cost, not generating unit lowest price.

“It is because we are lack of advanced large capacity battery energy storage technology, and a lot of wind power facilities installed in complete unable to power Internet. According to the statistics, the average Chinese wind farm abandon wind level is three times the European average.” Shanghai association of industry and commerce vice-president DuanQiHua said yesterday.
Data shows, “1025″ planning new energy strategy will be listed in emerging industries, including wind power in scale will at 3000 million kilowatts, ranked second wind power based on the installed capacity by 2015 and 2020 respectively 90 million kilowatts, and 150 million kilowatt wind the installed capacity and become a world first wind power. To ensure that all renewable energy power can be a takeover of the Internet, national renewable energy law in the form of law provisions indemnificatory acquisition system “full”, and the national renewable energy investment cost according to its online price subsidy.
Notable is, statistics show that at present the total completed less than 20% wind-power installed the proportion of electricity grid realization. Many wind farm often happen “abandon wind”, “stop” phenomenon, produced a considerable amount of investment waste. Many insiders, lack of large capacity battery energy storage system is the main bottleneck of wind power grid, China should speed up development of relevant technology, so as to better serve our renewable energy development.
The large capacity battery energy storage system shortage
According to understand, wind are difficult to achieve grid reason is that it is a “inferior” electricity. The so-called “inferior” refers to the inherent randomness, intermittent wind power determines its belong to the characteristics of low density, stable poor energy, adjust ability difference of energy, generating capacity affected by weather conditions and regional influence is bigger, if direct will all of its power grid, will to power the safety, stability and economic operation of power supply quality and grid adverse effects. In order to solve the bottleneck problem, the scheme in China are now basically has two, one is mixed by the wind power grid; send 2 it is using pumped storage, will not stable wind power into water, reoccupy water can power generation. But these two kinds of solutions in real operation all have drawbacks or obstacles. DuanQiHua says, based on the above reasons, in recent years Japan, America, Europe, and the Middle East countries are vigorous promotion and application of advanced large capacity battery energy storage technology, and the technology necessary in renewable energy sources such as wind power grid, such as the southern Mexico and the United States is constructing the total scale for 1600 million kilowatt wind farm has started supporting 100 million kilowatts the nas energy storage system. The large capacity battery energy storage system no pollution, zero carbon emissions, use it and renewable energy sources such as wind power generator for the joint operation, and carry on the stable intervention, can make the wind power output immediately change into stable output of energy, so as to realize the large-scale 5-month-construction wind power. “Therefore, for renewable energy sources such as wind power capacity battery with appropriate energy storage system in our country at present is to solve the wind power cannot grid the bottleneck problem of the most effective way of.” DuanQiHua think.

Before horse race circle wind firms by speed competition, now the enterprise competition by wind is quality and price, is the industrial chain of competition. Reporter recently attended “tianjin wind power generators industry, supporting meeting” Chinese renewable energy institute in professional committee drela m. xfoil wind power grid in accepting reporters also said: “the wind power industry to improve performance and price and based on the quality assurance, think of a way to reduce costs.” China’s wind power equipment manufacturers, sinovel to Shanghai from junwu MingYang etc, in electrical, wind generators field have certain competitiveness. Chinese wind farm in the basic adopted above, but for some high nationalization of technical equipment, or adopts imported products.
As a grid of wind power converter core equipment, according to not complete count, the more than 90% of the devices using foreign imports. Although there are some manufacturers domestic earlier in four or five years ago has intervened the domain, but development so far, he’s stability, reliability and other properties and foreign there is still some difference. China’s wind power over the coming decades will be doubled, can say to the growth of domestic wind power enterprise a very good development opportunity. But as the wind power enterprise, must increase in technology development, maintain the quality at the same time, the optimization of performance, such ability in wind field pulls ahead.
Say simply, like master ark the equipment, we basically achieved full nationalization. Because of his technical difficulties, each without much suppier all small wind turbines want to have their own a set of complete system, convenient debug. For technical barriers high equipment, the enterprise should also give us a chance, and domestic manufacturers comprehensive appraisal, comprehensive consideration, after all domestic enterprises service or more convenient. And involved in supporting enterprise also are trying to development design, in a short time to provide reliable equipment, to improve their own value.
The local government also devote a great deal of strength to support wind development of enterprise. Like tianjin, toward the development become wind power industry base goals and forward, for windmill generator power enterprise provide cooperation opportunities, encourage combination wind power enterprise independent research and development, encourage inspection institution housed the tianjin binhai new area. Now the top 10 famous at home and abroad have wind firms have six housed tianjin, because tianjin excellent industrial foundation and port advantage, after the development of offshore wind power to provide the first move.
In aggregate, for wind power enterprise development strength are increasing, the introduction of foreign technology, this is a process that need to speed up the pace, with China home wind turbine’s enterprises and the development of the situation wind power industry. Although we still need further improve the technology, but the price advantage is eternal theme. In the meanwhile, compensate for guaranteed advantages disadvantages, China enterprise power of wind power by the world could never neglect.

If someone tells you that a newly established manufacturing enterprises more than two years, 5 years, everywhere in the wind power market competitors to the annual output value reached 300 billion to 400 billion yuan, and master the core technology and build a complete industrial chain fan, Do you think this somewhat nonsense. However, if the company back the domestic construction machinery industry giant Trinity Group, with strong manufacturing background, you will not re-look at this idea?
This enterprise is thirty-one Electric Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the “Three Electric”).
Trinity Group as a wholly owned subsidiary of Trinity Electric in April 2008 in Shanghai, the same year in September moved to three a Beijing Industrial Park. “We have invested in wind power nearly 20 million. Thirty-one Electric’s goal is to create the most complete industrial chain of fans, leading the industry.” Director of Trinity Group, Trinity Electric Chairman Mao Zhongwu in words certainly had an interview.
Obviously, to achieve these goals requires a strong technical force sufficient to sustain it. Interview, the reporter learned that Trinity Electric has set up nearly 500 R & D team, the Institute consists of seven research institutes, key parts from the machine to have a strong R & D team.
Is well known that the establishment of Trinity Electric domestic wind power generators industry at a time when the rapid expansion of domestic manufacturing companies up to more than 80 fan, when the wind power industry is more like “crazy” power industry. Choose to enter the market at that time, more high-level insight from thirty-one Electric out of this market, some of the “blank.”
“When the domestic wind turbine manufacturers have to buy permits from abroad, or to ‘develop’ the way when the fan design and production, when the Trinity electrical fan manufacturing but want to grasp the core of the technical aspect, to find open doors in this industry key. “thirty-one Electric General Manager Wu Jialiang said,” Now thirty-one electrical advantage is self-developed technology. More to the point, fans such a long chain, we can independently manufacture; from the breadth and depth of fan technology concerned, is relatively even in the leading international. ”
Since June 2008 the first wind turbines and power generation has been achieved, Trinity Electric has been accumulated more than 300 MW of installed wind turbines. In just two years, in the wind power machine, generators, control systems, blades and other areas, Trinity Electric has own independent research and development of core technology and volume manufacturing capabilities. As of the end of August 2010, the company applied for a total of 113 domestic patents, 16 international patents, has authorized 31; 1.5 MW and 2 MW wind turbines have been in mass production, 3 MW and 5 MW wind turbines off the assembly line in the near future , 10-megawatt wind turbines has already begun preliminary studies.
In the overseas market expansion, September 1, 2010, 5 2 MW doubly fed wind turbine wind farm for the first time exported to the U.S. Ralls, Trinity Electric created a history of exports to the United States, but also exported to overseas single most powerful vertical wind turbine record. It is reported, Trinity Electric plans 2011 exports to South Africa and Vietnam fan. Trinity Electric, according to planning large-scale Trinity Electric will enter the U.S. market.
“In the future, Trinity Electric will be ‘two legs’ to walk, not only has a completely independent line of research and development the mainstream in the double-fed wind generator products, will also develop a world-leading direct-drive wind turbine technology.” Maozhong Wu said, for offshore wind power business development needs, Trinity Electric innovative manner a set of independent research and development for inter-tidal and coastal environment, and blower fan installation of foundation construction equipment and construction of the professional program. As a provider of construction equipment, marine Trinity Electric involved a number of projects licensed a joint tender bid.
“2012, Trinity’s wind power electrical related product sales (including supporting parts for the machine) will exceed 200 billion yuan, profits of more than 40 billion. Which will also include 60 billion of overseas sales, a global sales and service network, some products packaged in place to achieve overseas. Sany wind more than 30% domestic market share, becoming the first brand of Chinese fans to enter the ranks of world brands, global market share of over 10%. “in the Trinity Group official website, this goal impressively in the head
