On June 20th, the 2025 Offshore Wind Power Conference convened in Dalian, Liaoning. With the theme of "Cross-Sea Cooperation for a Win-Win Future: Building a Global New Ecosystem for Offshore Wind Power", the conference brought together hundreds of representatives from governments, industries, and academia. As an important organizer, Windey Energy Technology Group (WINDEY) joined the event for a deep discussion over such topics as offshore wind power policies, technological innovation, green ports, and international cooperation, with a view to jointly promoting energy transition and industrial upgrading, and to planning a new chapter of high-quality development.
Wang Jian, Executive Vice Governor of Liaoning Province, expressed warm congratulations for the opening of the conference on behalf of the Liaoning Provincial Government. He pointed out that offshore wind power is a key domain for safeguarding national energy security. Liaoning boasts a well-built foundation and huge potential in clean energy, and enjoys abundant offshore wind power resources. In 2024, the National Energy Administration approved 13.1 million kilowatts of offshore wind power resources in Liaoning. Today, Liaoning Province is committed to building offshore wind power home ports in Dalian, Dandong, and Yingkou to explore paths for the new ecosystem of global offshore wind power industry. In addition, Liaoning Province, with strong wind power consumption capacity and rich application scenarios, is insisting on coordinated development of power sources and grids, and expediting the development of such projects as flexible transformation of coal-fired power, green power-based hydrogen/ammonia/methanol production demonstration, and hydrogen metallurgy. Wang sincerely invited experts and entrepreneurs present at the conference to deepen their involvement in Liaoning, share opportunities in offshore wind power, and jointly tap international cooperation markets.
Qiu Baolin, Executive Vice Mayor of Dalian City, stated that based on national strategies, Dalian develops the offshore wind power industry and has built the first million-kilowatt-level offshore wind power base in Northeast China, with installed capacity expected to exceed 7 million kilowatts by the end of 2025. Dalian will seize opportunities, focus on its positioning as shipping center and new energy center Northeast Asia, take green power production as the main line, deepen government-enterprise cooperation, unblock the industrial chain with Dalian as the node, and contribute to national energy structure adjustment and green development.
Qin Haiyan, vice chairman of the World Wind Energy Association (WWES) and secretary-general of the Chinese Wind Energy Association (CWEA), said that the wind power industry stands for new productive forces as it integrates cutting-edge technologies such as high-end equipment, new materials, intelligent control, and deep-sea engineering. In addition, the wind power industry has a "chain leader" effect: for upstream, it connects high-end materials and precision manufacturing; for downstream, it drives green development of industrial enterprises; for supporting services, it boosts producer services such as artificial intelligence, survey and design, testing and certification, marine engineering, cargo transportation, and financial leasing. The development and construction of 13.1-million-kilowatt offshore wind power provides a strategic fulcrum, inevitably driving the transformation of traditional manufacturing in the province towards modernization, intelligence, and green development, promoting collaborative development of multiple chains, and helping Liaoning transform from a traditional heavy industry base to a modern industrial system featuring multi-chain integration, high end, and green. It will also help Liaoning become a vanguard to achieving new breakthroughs in the comprehensive revitalization of Northeast China in the new era.
Cheng Chenguang, CEO of WINDEY, extended a warm welcome to the guests present at the conference. He stated that WINDEY is strategically focusing on the offshore wind power sector and regarding Dalian as a strategic fulcrum and core hub for radiating the entire northern offshore wind power market. As a pacesetter and leader in China's wind power industry, WINDEY has overcome a series of technical challenges such as intelligent control over ultra-large offshore wind power clusters and field-level wake control, developed the 9MW Sea Harrier platform and 16-18MW Sea Eagle platform series of offshore wind turbines, achieved mass delivery and stable operation of the Zhuanghe V Project (the Company's first offshore wind power project in Liaoning), and successfully implemented the localized development model "Made in Liaoning, Used in Liaoning". Relying on its advantages as a national key industrial chain leader, WINDEY has fully built the most complete and competitive all-industrial chain ecosystem of Northeast China in Dalian, significantly improving the local supporting capacity and technical level on key components. Also, the Company has successively launched projects in Dalian, including the largest high-end wind power equipment base in Northeast China, the Group's only new energy investment platform, and the Group's first wind power new material manufacturing base. In the future, WINDEY hopes to join hands with the government and global partners to deeply participate in the construction of Dalian International Offshore Wind Power Hub Port and port-side industrial clusters, deepen the planning of industries such as new energy consumption, new energy equipment, and new energy materials, create a new regional development engine with tens of billions of investment and hundreds of billions of benefits, and inject green momentum into the comprehensive revitalization of Northeast China.
During the round-table dialogue, Cheng Chenguang had in-depth discussions with governments and global industrial chain enterprises on the collaborative development of global offshore wind power industry chain and supply chain, and shared unique insights on such topics as new trends in the global offshore wind power market environment, innovations in deep-sea wind power technology, industrial integration and collaboration, and international cooperation for wind power.
Focusing on themes including "Energy Transition under the Dual Carbon Goals", "Global Offshore Wind Power Market Outlook", "Deep-Sea Challenges", "Diversified Power Conversion", and "Synergy between Offshore Wind Power and Energy Storage", the conference planned the development of the industry through keynote speeches and forums. Attendees at the conference offered suggestions and shared practices on mechanism improvement, technological innovation, industrial integration, and international cooperation.
This conference is of great significance for the scientific exploitation of offshore wind power and the orderly development of the global industry. Next, WINDEY will work with partners from all walks of life to achieve consensus, effectively urging the global offshore wind power industry to build a new ecosystem and win a green future together.
