China has abundant wind energy resources that provide potential for large-capacity wind farms. China built its first wind farm in Rongcheng, Shandong in 1986. By the end of 2005, China had built 59 wind farms with 1,854 wind turbine generators, ranking it number ten globally.
Today, wind power in China is developing rapidly and is supported by the government. By 2020, China plans to have 30 gigawatts of wind power.
Liaoning, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, and Guangdong are the main areas in China that wind energy development took place. Currently, Xinjiang's Dabancheng is the largest wind farm in China, with 100 megawatts of power generating capacity.
To support wind power technology development in China, the Chinese government has implemented a number of projects and stipulated a serious of economic incentive policies such as the Ride the Wind Program, the National Debt Wind Power Program and the Wind Power Concession Project.
