Overview
Jilin Daan Dagangzi Wind Phase 4 is an operational onshore wind farm in China with a capacity of 49 MW, contributing to the country's renewable energy expansion.
Jilin Daan Dagangzi Wind Phase 4 is an operational onshore wind farm located in Jilin Province, China. With a capacity of 49 MW, it represents a medium-scale wind energy project within China's vast renewable energy portfolio. The facility is part of the broader Dagangzi wind complex, which supports regional clean energy goals. The facility operates under China's national renewable energy framework, which includes feed-in tariffs and renewable portfolio standards aimed at increasing the share of non-fossil energy. Onshore wind is a mature technology in China, and projects of this scale typically connect to the regional grid to supply power to local industries and communities. The 49 MW capacity aligns with typical medium-sized wind farms in the region. Environmentally, the wind farm contributes to reducing carbon emissions and air pollution in Jilin Province, an area with significant industrial activity. It also supports China's commitment to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. The facility's location in a windy corridor ensures efficient energy generation, though like all wind farms, it requires careful siting to minimize impacts on local bird and bat populations.
Environmental context
The Jilin Daan Dagangzi Wind Phase 4 project is situated in a region with strong wind resources, typical for onshore wind development in northeastern China. The area's flat terrain and agricultural landscape present moderate land-use conflicts, but proper siting can mitigate visual impacts. Wind farms in this region also face challenges related to grid integration due to variable output, but China's grid infrastructure is increasingly capable of handling renewable energy fluctuations.
Frequently asked questions
