Our current project

Gobi Gansu Wind Farm Project

Gobi Gansu Wind Farm Project

This Gold Standard project involves the generation of zero-emissions renewable energy through the installation of wind turbines in Gansu province, Northwest China, which are connected to the local grid. Due to the size of the project, it is making a significant contribution to the sustainable development of one of the poorest provinces in China.

The Technology

Wind is an abundant energy resource, which can be used to generate clean electricity through wind turbines. Wind power is produced by transferring the kinetic energy from wind to rotors. The mechanical energy from the wind turbine’s rotating blades then powers an electric generator. The output of a wind turbine depends on the turbine’s size and the wind’s speed through the rotor blades. These blades range from around 30 to 90 metres in diameter and the supporting towers are roughly the same size in height. The power generated by utility-scale turbines varies from 100 kilowatts to as much as seven megawatts. Larger turbines are grouped together into wind farms, providing bulk power to the electrical grid, which is sent through transmission and distribution lines to homes and businesses

Emission reductions

The project, located in the Gobi Desert, constructed 134 new 750 kW turbines, with a total capacity of 100.5MW of clean electricity, which is delivered to the Gansu Grid and Northwest China Grid (NWCG). The project reduces GHG emissions by displaying electricity, which would otherwise have been drawn primarily from fossil fuel power stations.
