China Switches On Its First Offshore Wind Turbine Master Control System – Offshore WIND

The first master control system for an offshore wind turbine made in China was put into operation on 29 May at Huadians Fuqing Haitan Strait offshore wind project.

The Huadian Ruifeng 6.2 MW master control system, installed on one of the offshore wind farms turbines, is based on a CPU processor and software developed in the country.

This is the first time a China-developed wind power master control system, including key technologies covering independent design, simulation test and engineering application, was applied in offshore wind generators, Xinhua reports.

The Fuqing Haitan Strait project, developed by China Huadian Corporation, features 22 MingYang MySE7.0-158 turbines with a rated power of 7 MW and a rotor diameter of 158 metres.

The 300 MW offshore wind farm, locatednear the shore off the northeast part of Longgao peninsula in the Fuqing county, produced first power in December 2020.

The offshore wind farm, which can power around half of a million households, is the first offshore wind project for China Huadian Corporation.
