First of all, welcome to Xinjiang and live in Hami!
Hami has a typical continental climate.
1. It is very dry, with annual precipitation of about 100 mm, which means it rains and snows several times a year.
2. It is windy and dusty from March to May;
3. Temperature: the highest is about 40 degrees in summer and the lowest is minus 28 degrees in winter;
4. The air quality is okay, depending on where you live. In the suburbs, the sky is blue every day.
How much electricity can one wind turbine in a Chinese wind farm generate?
46 megawatts is 46,000 kilowatts, which means it can generate 46,000 kilowatt hours of electricity in one hour of full power. In most areas with available wind resources in the west, the annual wind power utilization hours are about 1,800 to 2,200 hours (in layman terms, the utilization hours are the time required to convert the annual power generation capacity to full load), which can generate approximately (46,000 kilowatts × 1,800 hours =) 82.8 million kilowatt hours to (46,000 kilowatts × 2,200 hours =) 101.2 million kilowatt hours of electricity. The utilization hours of thermal power plants in a year are about 5,500 hours. After conversion, 46 MW of wind power is equivalent to (46,000 kilowatts × 1,800 hours/5,500 hours =) 15 MW to (46,000 kilowatts × 2,200 hours/5,500 hours =) 18.4 Megawatt thermal power. If in other areas, this method can be used to convert based on the specific conditions of local wind power and thermal power utilization hours.
The power generation of wind farms depends on the local wind resources and the power generation capacity of the wind turbines used. Generally speaking, they are divided into IEC Category I, Category II and Category III wind farms. Among them, Category I wind farms have the best resources, but Most of them in China are Category 2 and Category 3.
At present, mainstream wind turbines are above the megawatt level, and the power curves of imported and domestic wind turbines are not much different. When the availability is guaranteed, the equivalent hours of full load in a year should be The average is around 2,000 hours.
In this way, the annual power generation of a most common 1.5MW wind turbine is calculated as 1500KW*2000h=3000000 degrees=3 million degrees
