Overview
Guodian Jingbian Jishanliang Phase 3 is an operational onshore wind farm in Jingbian County, Shaanxi, China, with a capacity of 49 MW. It contributes to China's renewable energy expansion under national wind power targets.
Guodian Jingbian Jishanliang Phase 3 is an onshore wind farm located in Jingbian County, Shaanxi Province, China. With a capacity of 49 MW, it is a medium-scale wind project that forms part of China's extensive wind power development in the northern regions. The facility is operational and contributes to the local grid. The wind farm utilizes modern wind turbine technology typical of Chinese onshore projects. China's renewable energy sector is governed by the national Renewable Energy Law and provincial wind power targets, with feed-in tariffs historically supporting wind development. The 49 MW scale places it within the typical range for phase-based wind farms in the region. Environmentally, the wind farm helps reduce reliance on coal-fired power in Shaanxi, a province with significant coal generation. It supports China's goal of carbon neutrality by 2060 and provides clean electricity to the local grid. The project also aligns with national renewable portfolio standards that require increasing shares of non-fossil energy.
Environmental context
The wind farm is situated in a semi-arid region of Shaanxi, where land use is primarily agricultural and pastoral. Wind energy development here avoids water consumption and air emissions associated with fossil fuels. However, onshore wind farms can impact local bird and bat populations and require careful siting to minimize visual and noise effects. The project's grid integration is supported by China's expanding transmission infrastructure.
