Cangnan #2
- Type: Wind Farm
- Latitude: 27.3470000
- Longitude: 120.7510000
Project Name
- Cangnan #2 Offshore Wind Farm or Zhejiang Cangnan 2 wind farm.
Location
- The wind farm is located in Cangnan, Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China. The exact coordinates are 27.2883, 120.8153 (WGS 84).
Owner and Operator
- The project is owned and operated by Huaneng Power International Inc (100% ownership). The specific operating entity is Huaneng Zhejiang Cangnan Offshore Windpower CO LTD.
Nameplate Capacity
- The nameplate capacity of the Cangnan #2 Offshore Wind Farm is 301 MW.
Status
- As of the latest updates, the project is under construction.
Development and Construction
- While specific construction start dates for the Cangnan #2 are not provided in the sources, it is known that the project is currently in the construction phase. For similar projects in the area, construction typically commenced in recent years, with completion expected in the near future (e.g., the Cangnan No.1 Offshore Wind Power Plant Phase II Expansion is expected to be completed by Q4 2027).
Technology and Infrastructure
- The wind farm features offshore hard mount foundations, which are common for offshore wind projects. The turbines are likely to be installed on fixed foundations, such as monopile foundations, similar to other offshore wind farms in the region.
Environmental Impact
- Offshore wind farms like Cangnan #2 contribute significantly to reducing carbon emissions. For example, the nearby Cangnan 4 Offshore Wind Farm generates 1,200,000 MWh of electricity and offsets 1,287,000 tons of CO2 emissions annually. While specific figures for Cangnan #2 are not provided, it is expected to have a similar positive environmental impact.
Contractors and Partners
- For offshore wind projects in the region, companies like Envision Energy Ltd are often involved in the supply and maintenance of wind turbines. However, specific contractors for the Cangnan #2 project are not detailed in the available sources.
