| Wind Power Shanghai 2007  At a time when wind power is vigorously developing in China, Wind Power Shanghai 2007 will be held in Shanghai from November 1-3, 2007. This exhibition, jointly organized by Chinese Renewable Energy Industry Association, the Chinese Wind Energy Association, the Global Wind Energy Council and Shanghai International Exhibition Co. Ltd., is the most important event in China's wind power industry this year. This exhibition is composed of two major parts: the exhibition and conference. The exhibition space covers 9,000 square meters, with 110 exhibitors from 18 countries and regions participating.The number of visitors is expected to reach 10,000. Major wind power equipment manufacturers from across the world, such as Vestas, Suzlon, General Electric, Nordex, Acciona, and Airtricity, along with well-known wind power enterprises in China, including, Xinjiang Goldwind, Shanghai Electric and Zhejiang Windey, will host their shows in large spaces. Meanwhile, British companies will participate as U.K. Pavilion. The conference is the second important component of this event. 300 delegates are expected to attend the meeting and its main topics will cover policies, experience, technologies, wind power markets, wind measurement, project development and operation, wind farm at sea, investment and financing in connection with the development of wind power at home and abroad. The call for reducing discharge of greenhouse gases is becoming increasingly louder worldwide and wind power has shown its great potential for dealing with the change of climate, alleviating pressure on energy security and satisfying demand for energy resources as a kind of clean and high-efficient energy. Shanghai has rich wind power resources and at least 83% of "wind duration" is exploitable in a year. The broad sea area is ideal for building wind power farms. The first wind power project at sea is being built east of the East Sea Bridge in Shanghai and its total installed capacity is as much as 100, 000 kilowatts, which will create a new era in the development of wind power at sea in China. The prologue is beginning for China's coastal areas to bring their economic advantages into play and accelerate the development of wind power. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Exhibition News :: home page |
