Standing on a high hill, the breeze slamming, softly, people can not feel the power of it, but rows of white fans are turning freely. This is the scene that the reporter saw during an interview with Guodian Power Yunnan Dafeng Qikou Wind Farm in Yongding Town, Fumin County, Yunnan Province.
"As the market changes, China's wind power industry has entered a new round of adjustment period." Zhang Binquan, deputy general manager of Guodian Kehuan Group and Guodian United Power Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as United Power), said in an interview with reporters in Beijing. On the one hand, affected by the wind curtailment and power cutoff in the northern region, wind power development has taken heavy veil southwards; on the other hand, with overcapacity and fierce market competition, wind power manufacturers have successfully passed the southern low wind speed, high altitude, and coastal wind power markets along the east. Tested, the equipment industry has begun to shuffle deep.
Power curtailment abandoned wind forced developers to enter the East
It is understood that as the most mature green renewable energy source, the development of wind power in China has now gone through two different stages.
The first phase was referred to as the "set style" and "base type" development stage in the industry. The focus of development was on "three north" regions such as northwest, north and northeast. These areas are extremely rich in wind energy resources and have become a hot spot for wind power developers to compete for. At the same time, in accordance with the planning and layout of the “building a large base and integrating into a large power grid†proposed by the National Energy Administration at that time, a number of million-kilowatt and even 10-million-kilowatt grades have emerged in Hebei, Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Gansu, and Xinjiang provinces. The "Three Gorges Wind Power".
“However, the Three North Region was originally an energy-rich region, with poor access to electricity, the mismatch between the construction of wind farms and the speed of power grid construction, and the issue of curtailment of wind curtailment.†Wang Dapeng of the United Power Marketing Support Center told the reporter.
According to data from the Wind Energy Association, wind curtailment and wind curtailment began to appear as early as 2009. In 2011, wind power restriction in China exceeded 10 billion kWh. According to relevant data from the National Energy Administration, in 2012, China’s wind power was mainly limited to 20 billion kWh of wind curtailment in northern regions, which nearly doubled that of 2011. This has led to a decline in the economic efficiency of wind farm operation and caused more economic losses. 100 billion yuan.
The severe market situation forced wind power developers to find new ways. It is understood that from 2010, a large number of wind power development companies quietly southwards, from the original northern resource rich area to the southern power market consumption area. From this point on, China's wind power development has entered the second phase—from “concentrated†to “decentralizedâ€, from “heavy resources†to “heavy marketsâ€, and from “three norths†to southern provinces.
“Guodian Power took the lead and established Yunnan New Energy Co., Ltd. as early as 2009, and began to develop the southern wind power market.†Yang Zhengxiong, Director of Safety Production Department, Yunnan New Energy Co., Ltd., Guodian Power introduced: “As of now, the entire Guodian Group has Completed and put into operation 6 wind farms, among which Guodian Group has 2 Yunnan companies, Guodian Electric Yunnan 2 and Guodian Longyuan 2.
It is understood that, compared with wind resources in the three northern regions, southern wind farms are mostly located at low wind speeds and high altitudes. What are the benefits of wind power development? “The economic benefits of Yunnan wind farms are considerable.†In Dafeng Qikou wind farm in Fumin County, Yunnan, Yang Zhengxiong pointed to a Taiwan-based fan that was turning and told reporters that this was the first wind farm developed by Guodian Power in the south. A total of 22 stand-alone power 1.5 MW fans, all using UP-82 high-prototyping wind turbines produced by United Power, the number of hours available to 3229 hours, equipment availability reached 99.2%.
Yang Zhengxiong said that many people believe that Yunnan is a major hydropower province and will not suffer from the same problem of wind power consumption as the “Three North†region. In fact, Yunnan's climatic characteristics have formed a unique “fengshui complementary†power pattern, which is the main flood season from July to September and three months each year, with abundant hydropower. The reporter learned from the interview that except for Guodian Group, it has entered in recent years. The wind power market in Yunnan also includes Huaneng, Datang, Huadian, China Power Investment, China Guangdong Nuclear Power, Zhongdian Jianzhong Water Consulting Group and many other central-level power companies. At the same time, in the development of wind power in the south, in addition to Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi and other southern provinces and even Tibet have become hot spots for wind power developers to compete for.
Market competition promotes deep reshuffle of wind power equipment industry
According to Shi Pengfei, deputy director of the Wind Energy Committee of the China Renewable Energy Association, the development of southern wind power has become a hot spot, which cannot be attributed solely to wind curtailment in the northern regions. There is also an important reason that competition in the wind power manufacturing industry has intensified and unit prices have drastically dropped. Therefore, manufacturers are forced to increase technological innovation, especially to achieve breakthroughs in the research and development of low wind speeds and high altitude models, thus making the southern wind field, which originally had no development conditions, “turn waste into treasureâ€.
“The fierce market competition has prompted the Chinese wind power equipment industry to make waves and accelerate the reshuffle.†Zhang Binquan, general manager of United Power, told reporters that the first round of major reshuffles has been completed and a large number of small wind turbine manufacturers without technical support have been eliminated. The top 10 largest wind turbine manufacturing companies are also re-ranking in the competition.
It is understood that in the first round of reshuffle, Goldwind Technology Co., Ltd., which has persisted in the concept of “wind power and long distance running†for many years, has won steadily and become the largest wind turbine manufacturer in China. According to the report of China Wind Power Installed Capacity Statistics released by the China Wind Energy Association in 2012, the domestic installed capacity of wind power in 2012 was 12,960 MW, and the installed capacity of Goldwind's domestic market was 2521.5 MW, accounting for a new percentage of the national total. 19.5% of installed machines, with a cumulative installed capacity of 1,5200.4 megawatts, accounted for 20.2% of the country's cumulative installed capacity, ranking first in the domestic market.
At the same time, United Power became a dark horse in the wind turbine manufacturing industry. According to the wind power installation statistics report mentioned above, United Power’s newly installed capacity reached 2,029 MW in 2012, accounting for 15.7% of the total domestic installed capacity of the year and ranking second in the country.
Industry analysts believe that in this round of reshuffling wind power equipment industry, the winners are all manufacturers who attach great importance to technological innovation and product quality. Taking Jinfeng Technology and United Power as champions and runners-up for example, they are market-oriented and developed wind turbines with low wind speed, high altitude, low temperature, and high temperature several years ago, thus seizing the development of wind power southward. The business opportunities are at the forefront of the cruel market competition.
The reporter learned from an interview in Yunnan that the topography of Yunnan and the surrounding provinces is extremely complicated. The north-western region is the Hengduan Mountains in the deep valleys, and the east and south are the Yungui Plateau. The average altitude is about 2000 meters. Yunnan is mainly a series of low mountains and rolling hills. The average elevation in the northwestern Yunnan is 3000-4000 meters, and the average elevation in the southwest of Yunnan is 1500-2200 meters. In general, every 100 meters above the plateau, the temperature decreases by about 0.6°C. The whole of Yunnan is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, with more than 84% of the area being mountainous, with 10% of the plateau and hills, and only less than 6% are dams, lakes and the like. The proportion of mountainous regions in individual counties and cities exceeds 98%.
“The complex topography, geomorphology and climate characteristics of the southern region have brought challenges to the wind turbines. The combined power units have stood the test with excellent technical performance.†Cao H岵, Manager of the Marketing Support Center of Yunnan Yunhe, said that currently the joint The wind power projects won through market bidding have spread across five provinces and regions including Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi and Tibet, and 15 projects have been started. Among them, 9 projects are wind power developers outside the Guodian Group's system.
Zhang Binquan believes that the reshuffling of wind power equipment industry is not over. With the deepening of domestic structural reforms and the adjustment of energy agency policies and the transformation of the international economic situation, a larger platform of “offshore wind power†and “overseas wind power†has become a platform. More intense market competition has already begun. He predicted that China's wind power equipment manufacturing will face a new round of deep reshuffle.
