Focusing on large-scale development, the “scenic Three Gorges” was completed as scheduled. In the 14th five year plan, the Three Gorges group will realize the installed capacity of 70-80gw of new energy and China Three Gorges Renewables (Group) Co.Ltd(600905) shoulder the main responsibility. At the end of 2021, the installed capacity of the company’s grid connection reached 228963 million KW, including 142692 million kw of wind power (an increase of 5.3887 million KW) and 8.4119 million kw of photovoltaic power (an increase of 1.9111 million KW), which exceeded the installed capacity of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station (22.5 million KW). The first “scenery Three Gorges” was completed on schedule, and the first independent energy storage power station China Three Gorges Renewables (Group) Co.Ltd(600905) Qingyun energy storage power station of the company was also successfully connected to the grid in the first phase. In 2021, the company added 15.46gw of approved installed capacity, including 3.01gw of wind power and 12.45gw of photovoltaic power; 11.07gw of projects under construction, including 5.02gw of wind power and 6.05gw of photovoltaic power. The production capacity under construction is expected to further release the profit space.

Firmly implement the strategy of “leading offshore wind power”, with an installed capacity of 4.6gw. At the end of 2021, the company’s offshore wind power projects completed and put into operation in Guangdong, Jiangsu, Fujian, Liaoning and other places had a total installed capacity of 4.5752 million kW (an increase of 3.237 million KW), accounting for 17.34% of the national market share, an increase of 2.5 percentage points year-on-year. The scale advantage of offshore wind is prominent. According to the prediction of China’s 14th five year plan for power development, by 2025, the single unit capacity of China’s offshore wind turbine is expected to be increased to 9.5MW, and the initial investment will be reduced to 13700 yuan / kW. With the trend of large-scale units superimposed on technological progress, the yield of Haifeng project is expected to rise further.
