Chinese firm unveils offshore wind turbine with world''s largest rotor
Chinese state-owned energy giant China Huaneng Group unveiled on Thursday the world''s most powerful direct-drive floating offshore wind turbine in Fuqing, East China''s Fujian
Liu Xin, director of the offshore wind division at China Huaneng Clean Energy Research Institute, highlighted the turbine's adaptability, noting that its integrated intelligent sensing system enables holistic stability control for safe and efficient operation in complex deep-sea environments.
The 17-megawatt unit was developed by state-owned enterprises China Huaneng Group and Dongfang Electric Corporation. Last week, it officially rolled off the production line in Fuqing, a coastal city in Fujian Province. The wind turbine isn't just big—it's massive.
As the global competition in floating offshore wind intensifies, having a self-sufficient technology base gives China a powerful edge. The turbine's success also has broader implications for China's energy strategy. Nearshore waters (5 to 50 meters deep) offer up to 500 gigawatts of wind capacity.
