3. China is rich in wind energy resource, according to the data collected from more than 900 meteorological stations, it is estimated that nationwide total wind potential on land at 10m height would be 3.2TW , among them 253GW considered technical available to be utilized, in addition, 750GW were estimated for offshore, thus 1TW in total. Consider the modern wind turbine hub height is more than 50m, the above estimation maybe doubled. The areas with abundant wind energy resource mainly in northern China, southeast coastal line and vicinity islands.
