风电下乡难在哪儿？

Core Viewpoint - The "Thousand Villages and Ten Thousand Villages Wind Action" aims to enhance wind power development in rural areas, utilizing idle land to increase income for village collectives while addressing various challenges in policy, land security, resource assessment, and mechanism design [2][4]. Group 1: Project Overview - As of September 2025, over 15.5 million kilowatts of "Wind Action" projects have confirmed investment entities [1][3]. - China's rural wind energy resources are abundant, with the actual potential of onshore wind energy at 5.9 billion kilowatts, while the installed capacity in 2024 was only 521 million kilowatts, representing about 9.5% of the technically exploitable resources [3]. Group 2: Land Use Challenges - Land use is a critical issue for rural wind power development, with each wind turbine requiring approximately 2,000 square meters of land during construction due to additional infrastructure needs [6][7]. - Current land policies impose restrictions on converting rural land to construction land, leading to a preference for using scattered idle land for wind power projects [6][9]. Group 3: Revenue Model Development - Prior to the "Wind Action," rural wind power projects were smaller in scale compared to solar projects, primarily developed by state-owned enterprises due to high investment and lengthy approval processes [11]. - A partnership model is emerging where village collectives co-invest in wind projects, allowing them to receive fixed annual returns for community development and infrastructure [12][13]. - Four main revenue models have been identified: collective shareholding, resource exchange for infrastructure improvement, diversified land revenue, and local employment generation [12][13].
