The Chinese wind industry’s expansion is an undeniably impressive story. The world’s second-largest economy is the world’s largest onshore and offshore wind market in terms of both generation and capacity. China is not only firmly embedded across wind energy value chains—particularly in the mining and processing of rare earth elements—but it is also at the forefront of developing the world’s largest and most efficient wind turbines. Yet China’s emergence as the world’s leading player in wind has been costly. Beijing’s wind capacity deployment to less-than-ideal locations has been inefficient, while its failure to build corresponding transmission connections stunted growth in some of its windiest provinces. Moreover, Beijing’s acquisition of wind technology—sometimes by outright theft—has increased tensions with the West. China has risen to the top of the global wind industry, but at tremendous financial and diplomatic cost.

Did the Germans ever build that north - south connection the power companies got all that money for to build?

double nine posted:this is amazing, but how much co2 does the coal plant produce per annum I think your average 500 MW coal plant produces about 4 million tons of CO2 a year, so this captures a little more than a tenth of that.

double nine posted:this is amazing, but how much co2 does the coal plant produce per annum Assuming source 1 is correct, there are four coal-fired generation units. The carbon capture mentioned in the tweet is only applied to unit 4 (2) and captures only about 90% of the CO2 and the stated figure is mentioned in that tweet. unit 3 is the same, so one can take a guess and figure a minimum of 1.1 million tons of CO2. Taking a leap of faith and assuming that units 1 and 2 are about the same as units 3 and 4, Taizhou CFPP comes out to 2.2 million tons of CO2 a year. In terms of energy efficiency, the only stated figure is less than 2.4 GJ/ton (3) which puts it at state of the art in terms of carbon capture from the papers I've read. Not confident on measuring the energy penalty imposed but IRL figures come out to 22%-33% for expectation. 1: https://www.gem.wiki/Taizhou_power_station 2: http://en.people.cn/n3/2023/0613/c90000-20031021.html 3: https://www.ceic.com/gjnyjtwwEn/xwzx/202204/24f12ff33fb84c909e016a7ceb4e6ad3.shtml

Keep in mind China said they won't build new coal fire power plants outside of China anymore. And I believe other companies with advanced coal power plant tech like GE stop also. Re: wind power. Last I heard the industry is not making a lot of money. I think there is some bottleneck the technology is hitting.

The article actually does cover that -- wind is a fine supplemental power source but you need to put it in places that aren't really power hungry and it's tough to get connected to the biggest consumers of energy. Take some of the alpine and steppe areas of inner Mongolia. Great places for wind power, but you're hundreds of miles and big mountain ranges away from Beijing - so maybe you can get hooked into Datong or something but then there's still the transmission-distance problem so maybe it's not even really efficient to get it into that grid

Just a few thought on the climate change/carbon capture related topic. First of all, I think the new European carbon tax is a con. It's basically a trade barrier around EU but with a new name. It's intended to slow down the increase the cost of industrialization of the global south countries such as India. And since China has already industrialized and especially invested in the new energy markets, this new energy angle is not going to hurt China. However, on the subject of climate change, I think the boat has already sailed. The fossil fuel industry is not going to decrease their output, to prevent the global temperature 1.2 degree less warm for their grandchildren. They are just going to not increase their output, and not getting the new R&D money going into the solar/wind/battery markets. We will have to plan for the incoming global peopling from the tropic slowly toward to the formerly colder and higher regions. Also thorium based safer reactor designs, that's the future.

Usually tech companies are willing to license out/sell their technology when they are losing market to more competitive market leaders. Its not like buyers are guaranteed to profit from your slightly older tech. Its a business gamble for both parties involved.

For example, CATL is providing tech transfer to Ford as part of their agreement to setup the battery plant in the US, of course the politicians might still axe that.
