In September 2011, China began operating another wind farm
in Wuzhong, a city in Northwest China. China made use of their vast available
land by constructing a wind farm spread across 215 square miles in the area.
Coupled with solar power installations, they were able to produce 400 megawatts
with 300 megawatts coming from the wind turbines.
China has many good sites for onshore wind farms due to the
large land mass that the country has. The newly constructed one in Wuzhong in
the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, a semidesert, is just one of the many
suitable areas for installing wind turbines.
