The total number of projects to be injected is 2.408gw, which is about 2.5 times of the existing installed capacity.
Pinghai Bay offshore wind power phase III has been connected to the grid at the end of 2021, with an installed capacity of 0.308gw, which is expected to be injected in 2023; The construction progress of Yongtai pumped storage is in line with the expectation.
