Project Overview

The Zhejiang Shengsi 5, 6 Offshore wind farm is an operational offshore wind project located in the Daquyang Region of Shengsi, Zhoushan, in the Zhejiang province of China. The project was commissioned in 2021 and has a total nameplate capacity of 281 MW.

Ownership and Operation

The project is fully owned by China Guangdong Nuclear New Energy Investment (Shenzhen) CO LTD, a subsidiary of CGN Energy International Holdings Co Ltd. The operation of the wind farm is managed by China Guangdong Nuclear (Shengsi) New Energy CO LTD.

Technical Details

While specific technical details for this project are not extensively provided in the sources, general information on offshore wind turbines can be applied:

• Offshore wind turbines typically use direct-drive systems to simplify nacelle systems and increase efficiency and reliability.
• The turbines are equipped with components such as wind vanes to measure wind direction, anemometers to measure wind speed, and pitch systems to adjust the angle of the blades for optimal energy extraction and to prevent damage during high wind speeds.

Development and Construction

The project was developed and constructed by China Guangdong Nuclear New Energy Investment (Shenzhen) CO LTD. The construction and commissioning were completed in 2021, marking the project's transition to operational status.

Environmental and Economic Impact

Offshore wind farms like the Zhejiang Shengsi 5, 6 contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by generating renewable energy. They also support local economies through job creation and infrastructure development. However, specific environmental and economic impact data for this project are not provided in the sources.
