U.S. Media: China Fully Bets on Wind Power Expansion Amid Soaring Oil Prices
With Iran's war threats endangering oil supplies in the Persian Gulf, China is seizing the opportunity to strengthen its dominant position in wind power. Today, wind turbines dot the mountains and vast deserts of western China, with ultra-high-voltage transmission lines delivering electricity thousands of kilometers to coastal factories.
In 2025, China’s newly added wind power capacity will be three times that of the rest of the world combined, while wind turbine exports have also surged significantly. The world’s six largest wind turbine manufacturers are now all Chinese companies—former industry leaders from Europe and General Electric have been pushed out of the rankings.
China’s dominance in wind turbine manufacturing rivals its supremacy in solar panel production. As global energy security concerns intensify, China is reshaping the global wind power landscape, leveraging its complete industrial chain and scale advantages.
