Phase 1B Details
Status and Commissioning
- Phase 1B of the Shanghai Fengxian Offshore Wind Farm is currently operating, having been commissioned in 2021.
Nameplate Capacity
- Phase 1B has a nameplate capacity of 100 MW, as part of the overall 206 MW capacity for Phase 1 (which includes both Phase 1A and Phase 1B).
Turbine Specifications
- This phase is equipped with Goldwind Science & Technology GW 184/6450 turbines. Each turbine has a nameplate capacity of 6.45 MW (or 6.5 MW as mentioned in some sources), and there are 16 turbines in this phase.
Location
- The turbines for Phase 1B are located in the Fengxian District, Shanghai, China, with exact coordinates for Phase 1 being 30.7566, 121.8196.
Ownership and Operation
- The wind farm is owned by Shanghai Electricity Xinda New Energy Technology CO LTD and Shanghai Green Environmental Energy CO LTD, each holding a 50% stake. The operator of the wind farm is Shanghai Bay New Energy Windpower CO LTD.
Foundation and Infrastructure
- The turbines are mounted on fixed monopile foundations and are interconnected by 35kV inter-array cables.
Development and Construction
- The project construction began in 2021, and it entered into commercial operation by December 2021. The development involves Shanghai Electric Power and Shanghai Green Environmental Protection Energy.
Environmental Impact and Carbon Reduction
- While specific data for Phase 1B is not detailed, the overall project contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. For example, the Shanghai Fengxian Bay Wind Farm Capacity Expansion Project aims to reduce CO2 equivalent emissions, although this is part of a broader initiative.
Additional Information
- The project is part of China's efforts to expand its renewable energy capacity, particularly in offshore wind power. It aligns with national goals to reduce carbon emissions and increase the share of renewable energy in the energy mix.
