BEIJING -- Mingyang Smart Energy Group will become the first Chinese player to supply turbines for an offshore wind farm in Japan as the cheaper equipment helps lower hurdles for the country's new renewable power projects.

Mingyang recently reached an agreement to provide three 3-megawatt turbines for a wind power facility off the coast of Nyuzen, a town in central Japan. The company will soon sign a formal contract with general contractor Shimizu Corp., and will seek third-party certification for its equipment, a source familiar with the matter said.
The size of the deal has not been made public.

Slated to start operation as early as next year, the Nyuzen project is run by a consortium led by renewable energy company Venti Japan. The turbines will be installed a few hundred meters from the coast, meaning they can be affixed to the sea floor instead of floating platforms.
This presents the possibility that the company will have access to collect data on wind and ocean currents that are tied to Japan's defenses, an issue that has raised concerns as countries grow more protective of data that relates to national security and economic competitiveness, especially as tensions between the U.S. and China rise.

Both the Japanese and Chinese sides plan to respond carefully to any national security concerns that arise from the new wind power project. They have agreed that no data on wind or ocean currents collected during the turbines' installation and operation will be transferred to China.

Founded in 2006, Mingyang is known for producing high-quality and competitively priced products. It ranked sixth in the world, and third in China, as a supplier of new wind turbines in 2020, according to the Global Wind Energy Council.

Chinese government incentives to promote wind power have also contributed to its rapid growth. The company more than doubled revenue in 2020 to 22.4 billion yuan ($3.52 billion), and almost doubled net profit to 1.3 billion yuan.

Mingyang has been particularly focused on offshore turbines in recent years, tapping its strength in dealing with typhoons and other natural disasters. It ranks fourth in the world, and second in China, when it comes to offshore turbines.

Still, overseas markets make up a small portion of its overall sales.
It likely aims to leverage the contract in Japan, which is known for having stringent standards, into further opportunities across Asia and beyond.
Mingyang was chosen for the Nyuzen wind farm because it makes turbines cheaper than Western rivals such as Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, headquartered in Spain, and Denmark's Vestas, according to those involved in the project.

"China is geographically closer to Japan, so we can receive maintenance services more quickly," one official said.

The consortium is believed to originally have been considering Japanese-made turbines. But Hitachi announced an end to domestic wind turbine production in 2019. There are now no more major manufacturers making offshore turbines in Japan, according to the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy.

Chinese players are only expected to increase their global market share using know-how gained at home, with Beijing encouraging the construction of new offshore wind farms to curb the country's reliance on coal. China built more offshore wind power capacity in 2020 than any other country, according to the wind energy council. It also connected more than 10 times as much new offshore capacity to its power grids in 2021 than it did in 2017, Chinese media report.

A Major WIN for Chinese Companies 👍 Japan market known for having Stringent Standards.

Just realize that japan didn't have any Major Manufacturers that produce Wind Turbines :coffee: No Wonder their economy keep declining
 
. .
Building Offshore Wind Farm is a very Brilliant idea.

Green Energy 👍
Unlimited 👍
Don’t use any productive landmass 👍
Stable energy 7x24 hours 👍



This is such kind of country that will Win the Future

A major win indeed but not so much for jp's stringent standards. Given various scandals in recent history, the so called stringent standards in jp & many western countries are more propaganda than reality.
This win is significant coz it was clinched despite the anti-China bias in jp politics & business, showing MingYang superiority over the rivals is overwhelming.

Japanese and German products are notorious to be 3 times more ex compare to China with no improve in quality and functions. That is why Hitachi goes out of business for these renewable energy project. In these kind of high technology sector, branding is useless. Consumer will not paid more just becos you think your brand is more recognised. They will only paid more if your product proves superior in terms of lifespan, durability , robust and more efficient.

Here is an example of the best of the hyped western quality & I don't think even need to waste time to talk about tesla, 737max.


Mercedes warns owners of fire risk it can't fix​


January 5, 2022


Mercedes-Benz has warned owners of some of its cars there's a risk they could catch fire.
And the firm can't do anything about it because it can't get the parts needed for a fix.
The company says the problem concerns a possible leakage in the vehicles' coolant pumps.
It says there's no point doing a recall until the required components become available.
In the meantime it advises owners of affected vehicles to reduce usage to a bare minimum, and to drive in a "particularly prudent" manner.
Germany's Bild newspaper published a copy of a letter the Daimler unit sent to 800,000 owners.
The firm confirmed the letter was authentic, but wouldn't comment on the number of vehicles involved.
It says the fault affects a wide range of cars, including sedans and SUVs.
Like many automakers, Mercedes has been battling a global shortage of parts including for computer chips.
