Due to the energy supply and demand imbalance and unreasonable energy consumption structure, China should vigorously develop renewable energy. Wind power is important choice. In the past decade, the China wind power industry has developed rapidly. By 2012, the total installed capacity of wind power in China is 75324.2MW. China has become the largest installer of wind power capacity in the world. However, the wind power in also facing many problems. In this paper, analyzes wind power industry’s internal and external environments to identify opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses. Finally, put forward an appropriate strategy to promote the healthy and orderly development of the wind power industry.

With the increase in awareness about protecting our environment and the support for the cause by all major economies of the world through the Kyoto Protocol, the importance of wind power has grown in stature since it is clean and the most viable renewable energy resource. The global annual market of new wind turbine installation is more than US$ 40 billion at current prices, considering world-wide installations of about 40000 MW annually. This paper reviews the growth of the wind power industry globally as well as in India. The opportunities for investment in this industry and problems associated with it are also discussed with specific reference to India. In the second part of this paper, the business model of two of the major wind turbine manufacturers of India, Suzlon Energy Limited, and Enercon India Limited are discussed and their strategies are compared.

In 2015, the new installed capacity of global renewable energy power generation exceeded the newly installed capacity of conventional energy power generation, marking a structural change in the construction of the global power system. With the continuous improvement of wind energy utilization technology, the global wind power industry has developed rapidly in recent years. The world's available wind energy is 20 billion kilowatts and has become one of the most economical green power. In China, wind power has become the third largest source of electricity, with the installed capacity increasing from 3.1% in 2010 to 9.2% in 2017. In 2017, China's new installed capacity was 19,660 MW, accounting for 37.45% of the world's new installed capacity. This paper evaluates and compares the efficiency of wind power industry in the four regions of eastern, central, western and northeastern China through EBM models based on radial and non-radial factors. This paper discusses the contribution of China's wind power industry to CO2 emission reduction from the relationship between installed capacity efficiency and CO2 emission reduction efficiency. The conclusions show that the overall efficiency score and ranking of wind power in 2013-2017 is the best in the eastern region, followed by the northeast region and the western and central regions.

Wind power industry has been attracting the attention of various countries from the very beginning because of the energy shortage in recent years and Chinese wind power industry has made a rapid progress in the past five years. However, a further study is required to evaluate investment efficiency of wind power industry under the current investment pattern. By sorting out the input and output data of Chinese wind farms from 2005-2010 and constructing and measuring DEA input and output model, this paper finds that efficiency of government-led investment pattern is not high and also analyzes the reasons. Finally, the paper points out enterprises-led investment pattern will create a healthy and sustainable development for wind power industry.

With the incentive and supporting policy of the government, wind power industry has experienced swift development and gradually moved towards maturity in China. In this paper, we review the status of the wind power industry in China from a supply chain perspective, there is mismatching between upstream and downstream. In the upstream the production capacity takes the lead but the R&D capability is weak in the world. In the downstream the speed of wind farm development is fastest in the world but the capacity of wind power integration and absorption is restricting the utilization and development of wind farm. We analyze the issues with the supply chain from a macroscopic view and the policy recommendations for optimizing the development of wind power in China are proposed.

The wind power development policy community faces a conundrum. On the one hand, as the most commercially viable form of utility-scale renewable energy, the wind power industry has experienced in excess of ten-fold growth in total installed capacity over the past decade. On the other hand, installed wind power capacity still accounts for less than 2% of global electricity-generation capacity, despite the prevalence of studies indicating that, in certain situations, wind power can be a cheaper form of electricity than most fossil fuel alternatives. Accordingly, the most puzzling aspect of wind power development policy can be summed up in the following manner: given the global imperative to facilitate an expedient transition away from CO2-intensive energy technologies and the commercial viability of wind power, what is stopping the wind power industry from capturing higher market shares around the world? In Wind Power Politics and Policy, Scott Valentine examines this question from two angles. First, it presents an analysis of social, technical, economic and political (STEP) barriers which research shows tends to stymie wind power development. Case studies which examine phlegmatic wind power development in Japan, Taiwan, Australia and Canada are presented in order to demonstrate to the reader how these barriers manifest themselves in practice. Second, the book presents an analysis of STEP catalysts which have been linked to successful growth of wind power capacity in select nations. Four more case studies that examine the successful development of wind power in Denmark, Germany, the USA and China are put forth as practical examples of how supportive factors conflate to produce conditions that are conducive to growth of wind power markets. By examining its impediments and catalysts, the book will provide policymakers with insight into the types of factors that must be effectively managed in order to maximize wind power development.

Chinese wind power industry needs to raise the flexibility level to adapt the dynamic and complex environment. It is imperative to help the wind power industry to alleviate the influence of environmental turbulence. This paper established an analysis structure for environmental turbulence types including technological dynamic, supply and demand complexity, competitiveness confrontation and policy uncertainty. A questionnaire was designed and used to investigate the main influencing components in different types from experts in the field of wind power industry. By using the method of factors analysis, 19 main components are identified as having a significant influence on the environmental turbulence. The results revealed that the stabilization of wind power industry requires a combined effort from the enterprises and government.

China's economic rise has transformed the global economy in a number of manufacturing industries. This paper investigates whether China's transformative influence extends to the new green economy. Drawing on the debate about how China is driving major economic changes in the world – the “Asian drivers” debate – it identifies five corridors of influence and investigates their relevance for the wind energy industries. Starting with the demand side, it suggests that the size and rapid growth of the Chinese market have a major influence on competitive parameters in the global wind power industry. While Western firms have found ways of participating in the growth of the Chinese market, the government's procurement regimes benefit Chinese firms. The latter have invested heavily and learned fast, accumulating production capabilities that have led to changes in the global pecking order of lead firms. While the combined impact of Chinese market and production power is already visible, other influences are beginning to be felt – arising from China's coordination, innovation and financing power.
