Daishan 4 offshore wind farm

Project Overview

Location: The Daishan No. 4 Offshore Wind Farm is situated in Hangzhou Bay, Zhejiang, China.
Developer and Owner: The project is developed and owned by China General Nuclear Power Corp (CGN), a major clean energy company in China.

Total Capacity: The wind farm has a total capacity of 234 MW.
Active Capacity: The entire 234 MW is currently active.
Electricity Generation: The project generates approximately 610,000 MWh of electricity per year, which helps in offsetting about 464,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions annually.

Turbine Models:
- Phase IA: Equipped with 32 Envision Energy EN148-4.5 turbines, each with a 4.5 MW nameplate capacity.
- Phase IB: Equipped with 4 Envision Energy EN148-4.5 turbines, each with a 4.5 MW nameplate capacity.
- Phase II: Equipped with 18 XEMC Windpower XE140-4.0MW turbines, each with a 4 MW nameplate capacity.
Total Turbines: The wind farm consists of a total of 54 turbines (32 in Phase IA, 4 in Phase IB, and 18 in Phase II).

Construction Start: The project construction commenced in 2019.
Commercial Operation: The wind farm entered into commercial operation in December 2020.

The wind turbines in the project are installed on fixed foundations, specifically using monopile foundations.

The project contributes significantly to reducing carbon emissions and is part of China's efforts to increase its renewable energy capacity. The annual electricity generation helps in offsetting a substantial amount of CO2 emissions.
