Since 2004, driven by national policy, China’s wind power industry with Chinese-style machine speed leaps and bounds. Up to now, the whole company at least 80 more than the size of most enterprises and capacity has expanded each year and for the fans now do not have to worry about sales. With the Chinese government made commitments to the world: for 2020, China’s non-fossil energy in the primary energy consumption ratio of 15% of GDP unit carbon emissions below 2005 levels by 40% -45%, wind machine wind generator manufacturers warm again one was excited. Needless to say, the wind power generator industry will flourish, but to make more smooth the road ahead is required to respond to these challenges well.
Difficult to balance the scale of production
The field of wind power are often full of optimism, as the country of seven million kilowatts of wind power base level determination, machine wind turbines manufacturers generally follow the principle of the nearest building of production bases, the rapid expansion of production scale, a scale larger than general shops.
However, the expansion of the scale as the double-edged sword, if the wind power industry development as well as expected, the machine manufacturers can seize this rare opportunity, increase sales, large-scale benefits to enterprises. If the wind power industry in the situation of stagnation or economic crisis, a situation similar to production, the large-scale enterprises to become cumbersome, liquidity shortage will be inevitable.
What factors will affect the wind power turbines industry the scale of production?
Now, hard to bear the brunt of wind power. In accordance with the existing network architecture and load capacity, National Grid Electric Power Research Institute predicts that by 2020 wind power capacity of up to 1 million kilowatts of installed capacity of the national planning objective is 150 000 000 -2 100 million kilowatts, 1 / 3 or more grid capacity could not affect the wind farm owners for investment. When large-scale power generation groups meet the state’s non-hydroelectric renewable energy accounting for 8%, the expansion of installed capacity of power are gone, fans will demand the risk of stagnation.
Moreover, whether the continuation of state policy is also important factors. Policy support to a large extent, funding support, such as tax breaks, financial subsidies, land support. When our economic situation has continued to maintain growth when, Duiyu support wind power Chanye not a Wen Ti, and once Chuxianquanguo or the world economic situation, the situation down, small wind turbines industry Zijin there may be Ying Xiang Hui.
Representative from the world view of the country’s development process, policies continued support very few intermediate ups and downs will likely stage.
Overseas markets blocked
China’s home wind turbines machine enterprises begin to consider a few years ago to open up overseas markets, but the actual situation is not optimistic. Goldwind Yu Yao, Director of Public Affairs, “China Energy Report,” told reporters: “We need to be addressed three questions: First, market access certification; Second, bank credit facilities. On overseas markets, especially European and American markets, banks in the import and export a very important role to play, many fans of the funds the buyer to purchase access to bank credit by the bank in order to ensure the safe use of funds, resources and assessment of Chinese fans will organize enterprise products, price, enterprise strength, credit so inspected; Third, politicians in Europe and America have a fear that low prices of Chinese products, taking into account the protection of the local vertical wind turbines manufacturing industry, will be more Chinese companies not only expect to sell their products on the market, more To do something in the local investment, particularly in the past two years by the financial crisis, this tendency will become more intense. ”
Three questions which are not easy to solve, and market access certification in China is difficult to have a say in the international arena; fans the quality of products and credit needs of the test of time; trade friction is a long topic.
China’s wind power equipment, mainly by building wind turbine generators farms to absorb the domestic, and overseas markets at present does not seem so urgent. However, there is indeed overseas markets higher profits and greater development space, and have to make up for the role of changes in the domestic market situation, so wind power business to expand overseas markets is a matter of time.
Grab market unit price of imports decreased
Of wind turbines compared with the foreign unit, the main competitive advantage is price. Foreign-funded enterprises in China’s market share continued to decline from 2007, in order to reverse this trend, many foreign enterprises have gradually decreased fan blower prices, and wind generators manufacturer domestic brands is gradually narrowing the gap. That the foreign fans before the price higher than the 20% -30% local product views are out of date, and now the price gap between 10% -20% of enterprises to China’s unprecedented fan pressure.
As the fans continued to decline in price in recent years, although prices are part of the space, and machine business can be passed on to the parts cost way to temporarily ease the company, but is difficult to predict how long it can persist.
Difficult to master core technologies
Most of China’s wind power machine with foreign companies through joint development or purchase of the drawings the way to develop. “Standing on the shoulders of giants” may be subject to the giant, independent innovation is easier said it is hard.
For example, the fan control system design has been the weak link in our fans, a larger percentage of imports, several self-developed products has yet to achieve good results. Fan control system to realize the task of not only fans of the highly automated control and power to the grid, but also must pass the appropriate control to achieve the maximum wind energy capture and load to a minimum. In addition, because wind turbines in China a growing portion of the grid, wind power generation grid compatibility problem of the poor gradually exposed and the user on the different winds, the interconnection between the different types of fans are also required higher and higher, the fan control system is also put forward new tasks.
Sophisticated control system similar to this technology will become a long-term fan technology shortcomings. In addition, professionals such as wind power generators , fans etc would influence the quality of China’s wind power machine business challenges, wind power machine industry will soon face the new market environment, plan ahead is essential.
