List of offshore wind farms in China explained

China has the world's largest capacity of offshore wind power, with 25 GW operational as of mid 2022.[1] Offshore wind in China is growing rapidly, with 16.9 GW added during 2021.[2]

List

This is a list of operational offshore wind farms in China (within the national maritime boundaries) with a capacity of at least 100 MW. The name of the wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm. It is usually related to a shoal or the name of the nearest town on shore.
