4 FAQs about Wind power generation utilization hours

What are the utilization hours of China's Wind power generation equipment?

Utilization hours refer to the annual power produced, divided by rated power. As can be seen from Figure 4, the utilization hours of China's wind power generation equipment fluctuated to a certain extent, with the lowest point of 1724 h in 2015 and the highest value of 2103 h in 2018.

Is the value of wind power utilization efficiency still good?

The forecasted value of wind power utilization efficiency in South China and Central China has declined compared with 2019, but the development trend is still good. The 8-year average of 2013–2020 has also increased compared with the 7-year average of 2013–2019.

How should wind power development be managed?

Therefore, when considering wind power development, the management of wind power development should be strengthened, in order to realize the optimal allocation of resources. In terms of wind power utilization, the output scale of wind power utilization should be expanded to increase the contribution of wind power products to the national economy.

What is the average wind power utilization efficiency in China?

The average wind power utilization efficiency of Henan, Tianjin, and Hainan is between 0.3 and 0.4, and the average wind power utilization efficiency of Beijing, Qinghai, and Chongqing is the lowest, at less than 0.3.
