China Wind Industry Policy Update
China reiterated strong government support for wind power by introducing several
policies that promote the healthy and orderly development of wind industry.
Page 6Source: Government announcements.
On 20 March 2015, the NDRC and NEA issued the “Directives for
improving grid operation and promote the utilization of clean
energy”.
• Reserves room for clean energy in the annual plan;
• New electricity demand should be allocated to clean energy;
• Encourages direct trade to achieve full utilization;
• Pushes for clean energy's share of electricity transmission to be
quantified and increased;
• Encourages a compensation mechanism for peak shaving be
completed; and,
• Promotes utilization inspections.
Policy Encouraging Utilization of Renewable Energy
On 31 December 2014, NDRC issued the Notice for the Appropriate
Adjustment of Onshore Wind Power Benchmark Feed-In Tarrif.
• The FIT for Tier 1, 2 and 3 wind zones will be cut by RMB
0.02/KWh, to RMB 0.49/KWh, RMB 0.52/KWh, and RMB
0.56/KWh, respectively. The FIT for Tier 4 remains at
Rmb0.61/KWh.
• Developers will pay greater attention to wind turbine quality
and power output, speed up the move toward grid parity and
marginalize weaker competitors.
Reduction of Wind Tariff by 3-4% in Parts of China
Renewable Portfolio Standard May Be Issued
Media reported that the latest updated proposed renewable
portfolio standard plan was submitted to the State Council for final
approval. Some details of the plan were also released:
• Wind, solar and bio-mass are the key renewable power
resources covered by the plan.
• Basic and advanced renewable consumption ratios proposed
for 6 tiers with targets for 2015, 2017 and 2020.
• Local grid and government authorities are responsible for
achieving the renewable power consumption targets.
On 25 June 2014, the NEA introduced the “Notice on Relevant
Requirements for Regulating Orders in the Wind Power Equipment
Market”.
• Establishes requirement for “type approval” certification for
wind turbine bids submitted for public tenders starting 1 July
2015 in an effort to ensure quality.
• Proposes quality acceptance standards to reduce delayed or
failed quality acceptance and expedite payments to wind
equipment manufacturers.
• Encourages fair and open wind turbine tender market and
seeks to prevent anti-competitive practices such as regional
protectionism.
• Enhances information disclosure and the regulation of the wind
equipment market.
NEA Set New Standards for Public Tenders and Bids
Industry Review Business Review Financial Results Outlook
Wind Turbine Bidding Prices Relatively Stable

Wind Farms Achieve Above-Average Performance
Although a majority of Goldwind’s installed capacity is located in its home regions – the
northeast and north central of China, capacity under construction is more diverse.
Wind Utilization Hours by Region
• Northwest and North Central represented 84% of our
attributable installed capacity on 31 Dec. 2014.
• Goldwind typically achieves a higher average utilization
rate than China’s national average utilization rate.
• That’s partly because Goldwind has less exposure to
the Northeast, but also because we outperform in the
Northwest and North Central regions.

China Wind Power Outlook
China’s wind power capacity has grown quickly, but wind only represents a small part of
China’s energy mix. Policy will encourage increased wind power consumption.
Source: Electricity consumption: NEA; Installation targets: China Wind, Solar, and Biomass Roadmap 2050, December 2014.
China Power Demand (10,000 kWh)
• China’s connected wind capacity increased at a
CAGR of 39% during 2008 – 2014, but wind still
represents less than 3% of total consumption.
• Other countries have demonstrated feasibility of
consuming a larger proportion of wind power.
• Denmark: 39% wind power in 2014
• Portugal: 24% wind power in 2014
• Spain: 21% wind power in 2013

On 20 March 2015, the NDRC and NEA issued the “Directives for improving grid operation and promote the utilization of clean energy”. • Reserves room for clean energy in the annual plan; • New electricity demand should be allocated to clean energy; • Encourages direct trade to achieve full utilization; • Pushes for clean energy's share of electricity transmission to be quantified and increased; • Encourages a compensation mechanism for peak shaving be completed; and, • Promotes utilization inspections. Policy Encouraging Utilization of Renewable Energy On 31 December 2014, NDRC issued the Notice for the Appropriate Adjustment of Onshore Wind Power Benchmark Feed-In Tarrif. • The FIT for Tier 1, 2 and 3 wind zones will be cut by RMB 0.02/KWh, to RMB 0.49/KWh, RMB 0.52/KWh, and RMB 0.56/KWh, respectively. The FIT for Tier 4 remains at Rmb0.61/KWh. • Developers will pay greater attention to wind turbine quality and power output, speed up the move toward grid parity and marginalize weaker competitors. Reduction of Wind Tariff by 3-4% in Parts of China Renewable Portfolio Standard May Be Issued Media reported that the latest updated proposed renewable portfolio standard plan was submitted to the State Council for final approval. Some details of the plan were also released: • Wind, solar and bio-mass are the key renewable power resources covered by the plan. • Basic and advanced renewable consumption ratios proposed for 6 tiers with targets for 2015, 2017 and 2020. • Local grid and government authorities are responsible for achieving the renewable power consumption targets. On 25 June 2014, the NEA introduced the “Notice on Relevant Requirements for Regulating Orders in the Wind Power Equipment Market”. • Establishes requirement for “type approval” certification for wind turbine bids submitted for public tenders starting 1 July 2015 in an effort to ensure quality. • Proposes quality acceptance standards to reduce delayed or failed quality acceptance and expedite payments to wind equipment manufacturers. • Encourages fair and open wind turbine tender market and seeks to prevent anti-competitive practices such as regional protectionism. • Enhances information disclosure and the regulation of the wind equipment market. NEA Set New Standards for Public Tenders and Bids
