Overview
Jilin Taonan Xinli Wind Phase 2 is an operational onshore wind farm in China with a capacity of 49 MW. It contributes to the country's renewable energy expansion under national wind power targets.
Jilin Taonan Xinli Wind Phase 2 is an operational onshore wind farm located in Jilin Province, China. With a capacity of 49 MW, it falls within the medium-scale range for wind projects in the region. The facility is part of China's extensive wind power development, which is driven by national renewable energy targets and provincial wind resource plans. The wind farm utilizes modern wind turbine technology to convert wind energy into electricity. China's renewable energy sector is supported by a robust regulatory framework, including the Renewable Energy Law and national five-year plans that set ambitious wind capacity goals. The facility operates under China's feed-in tariff system, which has historically provided stable revenue for wind projects. Environmentally, the wind farm helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions by displacing fossil fuel-based power generation. It also supports local grid stability and contributes to Jilin Province's renewable energy portfolio. The project's location in a region with favorable wind conditions enhances its operational efficiency and long-term viability.
Environmental context
The wind farm is situated in Jilin Province, a region with significant wind resources suitable for onshore wind energy generation. Wind power projects in this area can have visual impacts on the landscape and may affect local bird and bat populations, though these impacts are typically mitigated through careful siting and operational adjustments. The facility contributes to reducing air pollution and carbon emissions by displacing coal-fired power, which is prevalent in China's energy mix.
