Wind Blending All Things] Gao Ling: Approaching WINDEY, Understanding China, and Bridging the Global Wind Energy Industry
On September 25, local time, Gao Ling, Chairman of WINDEY, delivered a compelling and insightful special address titled “Understanding China” at the WindEnergy Hamburg 2024 event held in Europe (Germany), as well as at the Global Wind Energy Council Open Theater. In her address, Ms. Gao eloquently narrated the rich and diverse developmental trajectory of China’s wind power industry, accompanied by her profound perspectives on the global wind power market. This address attracted widespread attention and accolades from the distinguished audience gathered at the event.
Gao Ling conducted a thorough and meticulous evaluation of the evolving dynamics within China’s burgeoning wind power sector. This industry has flourished prominently under the auspices of the Renewable Energy Law, consistently guided by a comprehensive array of policies, strategic roadmaps, and legislative frameworks. She stated that subsequent to initial technological demonstrations, commercial endeavors, vast construction projects, and now cost-effective grid integration, China’s wind power sector is progressing in a more resilient and organized manner, notably in the realms of research and development, production, and deployment of large-scale megawatt WTGS. China has emerged as a prominent global leader and has successfully established a comparatively comprehensive support industry chain for wind power equipment.
As a prominent publicly traded company in China, WINDEY specializes in the exploration of wind power technology and is relentless in its pursuit of advancements in product development. With a steadfast dedication to the evolution of the industry and a profound expertise cultivated within the wind power technology sector, WINDEY has firmly established itself as a leading global provider of innovative and intelligent new energy solutions.
In this context, Chinese wind power enterprises have progressively expedited their journey towards globalization. By the conclusion of 2023, China’s total cumulative export capacity of WTGS has surpassed 15 million kilowatts. Bloomberg’s statistical data indicates that out of the five leading suppliers of WTGS, which have the highest newly installed capacity globally in 2023, four originate from China. Notably, WINDEY is prominently positioned among the top four worldwide, emphasizing the pivotal significance of Chinese wind power in driving forward the global efforts towards carbon neutrality.
Gao Ling emphasized that healthy competition stands as the cornerstone of fostering innovative vitality across a broad spectrum of industries. China has achieved the remarkable milestone of forging a globally competitive wind power industry system amidst fair and orderly market competition. This accomplishment has significantly reduced the cost of wind power per kilowatt hour, thereby positioning it as an economically viable and environmentally sustainable source of energy. Given the globalization of the wind power industry and the intricate interconnectedness of supply chains spanning the globe, fostering international cooperation necessitates a steadfast dedication to cultivating a robust and healthy competitive environment. To more effectively address the challenges confronting the global wind power industry, she urges all nations to cooperate in the establishment of a fair, equitable, and transparent trade regulatory framework. This will significantly enhance the resilience and security of the global wind power supply chain, thereby ensuring the unhindered achievement of sustainable development goals.
