List of offshore wind farms in China

This is a list of operational offshore wind farms in China (within the national maritime boundaries). As of May 2012 China has two operational offshore wind farms.[1][2]

The name of the wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm. It is usually related to a shoal or the name of the nearest town on shore.

  • "Cap." is the rated nameplate capacity of the wind farm
  • "When" is the year when the windfarm was commissioned and put into service.
  • "Cost" is the total capital cost of the project up to commissioning.
  • "Cap. Fac." is the average capacity factor, i.e. the average power generated by the windfarm, as a percentage of its nameplate capacity.
  • "km to shore" is the average distance of the windfarm to shore, or (where available) the distance from the in-farm transformer/substation to the shore
  • "Depth range (m)" is the range of minimum to maximum depths of water that the windfarm is sited in
  • "Refs" cite the source references for the information. The [w ...] footnotes link to each windfarm's own home page
