China's wind power industry plans to double its new installed capacity within five years.

Foreign media: The Chinese wind power industry plans to double the annual installation of wind turbines in the next five years.

China is currently the world's largest in terms of wind power capacity. According to a statement jointly made by more than 1,000 wind power companies, China will add at least 12 gigawatts of wind power capacity each year from 2026 to 2030, which is twice the average of 6 gigawatts per year from 2020 to 2024.

Previously, the industry had set a target of adding 5 gigawatts per year from 2021 to 2025, which has already been exceeded. In addition, the statement also proposes to increase China's total wind power capacity to 1,300 gigawatts by 2030. As of August this year, China's total wind power capacity was 580 gigawatts. This plan aims to help China achieve its carbon neutrality goal.
