China Ming Yang Wind Power Group, a leading wind turbine manufacturer, declared that a memorandum of understanding has been signed with Northern China’s Provincial Government of Hebei, for a series of wind energy projects.
Ming Yang plans to develop solar/wind hybrid storage solutions and wind power equipment that includes a carbon fiber manufacturing unit for production of 3-6 MW large scale wind turbine blades and batteries. The Hebei Government is planning to allot 2 GW of offshore wind power to the coastal region in Hebei to be developed by Hebei and other utility operators and also 1 GW of solar and wind power in Chengde.
Hebei lies between the Bohai Sea and the Inner Mongolian plateau and has rich offshore and onshore wind resources. Hebei also borders many populous and large industrial centers such as Beijing, which gives them plenty of opportunities in the wind energy market. According to the CEO and the Chairman of Ming Yang, Chuanwei Zhang, the company was confident that this alliance with the Government of Hebei would improve their business growth and also increase their market share in China.
Ming Yang not only designs and manufactures but also sells and services the megawatt capacity wind turbines. It has supplied several large scale turbines with high energy output and low costs with an all embracing post sales service. It collaborates with Germany’s Aerodyn Energiesystme for the development of wind turbines. The company’s major customers comprise the five major power producers owned by the Chinese state.
