China's wind power accounted for only 1.67% of the total in 2011

On March 6, the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, Wu Xinxiong, said: “In 2011, China’s total power generation reached 4.8 trillion kWh, ranking first in the world. According to the reporter’s understanding, China’s wind power generation was 80 billion kwh, wind power The proportion of total power generation is 1.67%, up 0.5 percentage points over the previous year.

According to statistics, in 2009 China’s total power generation was 3.65 trillion kWh, wind power grid power was 27.6 billion kWh, and wind power accounted for 0.76%; total power generation in 2010 was 423 million kWh, wind power was 50.1 billion kWh, and wind power accounted for 1.18 %. The proportion of wind power continued to rise slightly in 2011, but no substantial breakthrough was seen. According to the latest data from the China Wind Energy Association, China’s newly installed wind power capacity was approximately 18 million kilowatts, which means that the newly installed capacity contributed 30 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, which is quite different from foreign wind power advanced countries.

The country with the highest share of wind power in the world's electricity consumption is Denmark, which is about 20%, with the highest peak reaching 60%.

In 2010, the annual average level of wind power generation in Spain accounted for 16.4% of the country's total electricity consumption, ranking second in the world. On December 30, 2009, the country hit its highest record in history: Wind power accounted for 43% of the total electricity on the grid, with an instantaneous maximum of 54.7%.

In the first half of 2011, the proportion of renewable energy generation in the country’s total electricity generation has exceeded 20%.

According to a study by the American Wind Energy Association, wind power will account for 20% of total U.S. electricity generation by 2020.

France's wind power generation in 2011 accounted for 2.5% of the country's total electricity consumption, equivalent to the total household electricity consumption of 5 million French.

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy of India (MNRE) announced recently that in the past three years, India’s electricity generation from wind and solar energy is expected to reach 50.3 billion kWh, accounting for 2.14% of the total output of 2.3460 trillion kWh during this period.

Among the above-mentioned countries, Spain and China are similar: the regions where resources are abundant and the regions with concentrated consumption are reversely distributed. "Compared with China's power grid, our power grid is not necessarily stronger or smarter," said Alberto Carbajo Josa, director of operations of the Spanish State Grid Corporation of Spain, said: "In the current grid technology level and conditions, the grid receives more wind power. It is an economic issue, not a technical one.”
