Abstract

Compared to onshore wind power, offshore wind power has a relatively short history. The offshore wind potential in China is about 3 times larger than onshore, yet China had not dedicated into offshore wind research and development until recent years. China has the incentive to construct offshore wind farms along its southeast coast. This area is adjacent to China’s southeast developed regions where it is highly populated and lacking conventional energy supply. And then, we compare with the cost of offshore wind power and fossil fuel fired generation will show which power generation is more attractive.
