China has taken a significant leap forward in renewable energy infrastructure by delivering two homegrown fourth-generation wind turbine installation vessels in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province. These state-of-the-art vessels are the latest generation globally and are engineered to withstand harsh wind and wave conditions.
Compared to their third-generation predecessors, the new vessels offer a remarkable 30-percent increase in installation speed. This improvement not only accelerates the development of offshore wind farms but also enhances operational flexibility and efficiency.
As the country’s fourth-generation self-propelled vessels, they are specifically designed for installing offshore wind turbines, marking a major advancement in China’s capabilities to harness renewable energy. This development underscores China’s commitment to expanding its offshore wind energy capacity, contributing to global efforts in combating climate change and promoting sustainable energy solutions.
