China's first large-scale application of 18-megawatt offshore wind turbines has achieved full-capacity operation, according to a report from Cailianshe on September 24. The project, the CGN Yangjiang Fanshi 2,000 MW offshore wind farm in Guangdong, consists of two million-kilowatt sub-projects. It deploys 33 of the 18 MW ultra-large turbines, currently the largest single-unit capacity model to be batch-deployed domestically. Each turbine has a rotor diameter of 292 meters and a swept area of approximately 66,000 square meters, equivalent to nine standard football fields. The report states that the scaled application can effectively reduce the number of turbine positions needed, lowering costs for submarine cable laying, offshore foundation construction, and sea area occupation, thereby accelerating the development of China's offshore wind power toward larger capacity and lower cost.

September 24 — China's first large-scale application of 18-megawatt (MW) offshore wind turbines has achieved full-capacity operation, marking a significant step toward accelerating the development of high-capacity, low-cost offshore wind power in the country.
The project, the CGN Guangdong Yangjiang Fanshi 2,000 MW offshore wind farm, consists of two sub-projects each with a capacity of one million kilowatts. It features 33 ultra-large 18 MW offshore wind turbines, currently the largest single-unit capacity offshore wind turbine model deployed in batches domestically.
Each turbine has a rotor diameter of 292 meters and a swept area of approximately 66,000 square meters, equivalent to the size of nine standard football fields.
With large-scale deployment, the 18 MW turbines can effectively reduce the number of turbine positions required, thereby lowering costs associated with submarine cable laying, offshore foundation construction, and sea area occupancy.
