00:00The world's largest 18-megawatt offshore wind turbine is now operational in Yingkou City, China.
00:06This homegrown marvel generates up to 18,000 kilowatts of electricity per hour,
00:12significantly boosting power generation in the region by 125% compared to existing 8-megawatt
00:19turbines. At full wind speed, this turbine can produce 44 kilowatts of energy with each rotation.
00:27Its annual output averages 74 million kWh, enough to power 40,000 households,
00:34saving 25,000 tonnes of coal and cutting 61,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions. Standing tall with a
00:42hub height of 145 metres, the equivalent of a 50-storey building and blades reaching 126 metres
00:50long, this technological wonder exemplifies China's continued commitment to clean energy
00:56and environmental sustainability.
