At 12:56 on November 20th, as the No.9 wind turbine impeller of the Guohua Dongtai Phase V offshore wind power project was launched into the wind, the 500-megawatt offshore wind power project jointly developed by China Energy Investment Corporation and EDF achieved full-capacity grid-connected power generation, which has become a vivid case of working with the international community to address the challenges of climate change and speed up the construction of a green and low-carbon circular economy system.

With the full-capacity grid-connected power generation of the project, Yancheng, the first “city of 10-gigawatt new energy power generation” in the Yangtze River Delta, has become an important window for China to show its carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals to the world. Relying on the unique wind and solar resources such as long coastline, wide sea area, and abundant wetlands, Yancheng insists on “facing the future on ocean resources, and setting a model of green transformation”. Developing wind power and solar energy, development and manufacturing at the same time, we gather a group of national resource development companies, such as the State Power Investment Corporation, Huaneng, and China Energy, as well as a large number of wind power photovoltaic equipment manufacturing companies such as Goldwind, Envision Energy, Shanghai Electric, Trina Solar, Canadian Solar, etc. A whole industry chain ecosystem have been built. Yancheng has become one of the first group of new energy demonstration cities in the country and a pilot city for the development of regional agglomeration of the national offshore wind power industry.
