The state will introduce policies to support the wind power equipment industry

Recently, Wang Zhongying, Director of the Renewable Energy Development Center of the Energy Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated at the “Renewable Energy Development Forum” that at present, China’s wind turbines with independent intellectual property rights have large gaps, and the core technologies of wind turbine manufacturing It is not yet known in China. In this regard, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance are studying and formulating plans to support the localization of complete machines and components for wind turbines, or will provide financial support for the manufacture of wind turbine generators and components with independent intellectual property rights.
At present, from the perspective of the development level of wind power equipment in China, although the mass production capacity of 600 kW and 750 kW wind power generators is available, most of the wind power equipment manufacturers in China still remain at the design and manufacturing level of low-end equipment. Shi Pengfei, deputy director of the China Wind Energy Association, said that due to the lack of core technologies, China's currently mass-produced electrical equipment is produced by developed countries 10 years ago.
In the research and development of high-end wind turbine products, although some enterprises in China have entered the megawatt design and manufacturing field, due to the lack of field operation inspection (the quality of the equipment is subject to approximately 20 years of field operation assessment), the promotion of prototypes has been promoted. There are still some difficulties.
Shi Pengfei pointed out that the domestic market for wind power equipment is very broad, but due to the weak design capabilities of domestic enterprises, most of the high-end equipment technologies are in the hands of foreign parties, resulting in the monopolization of most domestic markets by imported equipment. According to statistics, in the new market share of wind power equipment in China, domestic equipment accounted for only 25% and imported products accounted for 75% in 2004. In 2005, among the new market share of wind power equipment, imported equipment accounted for more than 70%; in 2006, China 60% of the demand for wind power equipment market is still satisfied by imported products.
With the implementation of China's energy development strategy, the domestic market for wind power equipment has been expanding year by year. In the “Long-Term Development Plan for Wind Power Generation” formulated by the National Development and Reform Commission, it is clearly stated that by the end of 2010, the total installed capacity of wind power in China will reach 4 million kW; by the end of 2015, the total installed capacity of wind power in China will reach 10 million kW; by 2020, At the end of the year, the total installed capacity of wind power in China reached 20 million kW.
The large-scale development of wind power provides a broad market space for the development of wind power equipment manufacturing. How to realize the localization of wind power equipment has become an urgent matter for China to accelerate the development of the wind power industry.
It is reported that the government will give corresponding policy support to the development of the wind power equipment industry. Due to the particularity of the wind power equipment industry itself, at present, the support for its entire machine or its parts and components is heavy and the relevant departments are still under review.
Because of the long cycle and high risks of investment in the wind power industry, experts believe that the state should give strong support in the autonomy of wind power equipment. For example, the state should promote the development of wind power equipment industry in terms of laws and regulations, testing and certification.
At present, the Ministry of Science and Technology has included the industrialization of wind power equipment in the key support projects of the "Guidelines for Selected Key Projects of the Technology Innovation Fund for Science and Technology Small and Medium-sized Enterprises of the Year 2007". Relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that the country will support the industrialization of large and medium-sized wind turbines through loans and interest subsidies.
