Recently a maritime wind power plant with a generation capacity
of 100,000 kilowatts was officially launched in Shanghai. Built
with some 2.4 billion yuan, it is the first large-scale offshore
wind plant in China.
Compared with coal-fueled power plants, this plant can save
86,000 tons of standard coal annually, or eliminate the production
of 2,148 tons of sulfur dioxides, 1,847 tons of nitrogen oxides and
237,400 tons of carbon dioxides.
