Sou Hu Cai Jing·2025-08-20 03:33Core Insights - The report by Shunwei Consulting highlights the organizational efficiency of ten benchmark companies in the wind power equipment sector, which represent 67% of the new installed capacity in China for 2024 [1][10]. Industry Overview - The global GDP growth rate for 2024 is projected at 3.9%, with China's economy showing a positive growth trend. Clean energy's share in the power structure is expected to rise to 37%, with wind power generation reaching 1 trillion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 13% [2][17]. - In 2024, the global wind power market is expected to add 117 GW of new capacity, with China accounting for 68% of this growth, translating to 80 GW of new installations. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the past five years is 25% [2][38]. - The wind turbine market is projected to grow steadily, reaching a scale of 136.6 billion yuan by 2030, with increasing industry concentration as the CR5 rises from 65% in 2020 to 75% in 2024 [2][40]. Organizational Efficiency Analysis - In 2024, benchmark companies experienced a slight revenue decline of 2.1% and a net profit drop of 9.1%. Revenue per employee and net profit per employee fell by 6.4% and 17%, respectively [3]. - The gross profit margin and net profit margin decreased to 13% and 3.4%, indicating squeezed profit margins. The return on equity (ROE) is only 2.9%, with inventory and accounts receivable turnover rates declining [3]. - The market value of these companies decreased by 4.3% year-on-year, reflecting market concerns about their profitability resilience [3].

The competitive dynamics are shifting towards a more consolidated market structure [2][44]. - Chinese wind turbine manufacturers are leading globally, but there remains significant potential for overseas expansion. The offshore wind power sector is expected to add 10 GW by 2025, with cumulative global additions reaching 156 GW from 2025 to 2030 [2][48]. Future Trends - The industry is witnessing trends such as deep-sea extension, larger and lighter wind turbines, and an expansion across the entire industrial chain. Wind turbine prices are expected to stabilize and recover by 2025 [2][30]. - The transition towards a market-oriented pricing mechanism for renewable energy is anticipated to enhance the profitability of wind power projects, especially as the market reforms take effect [24][29].
