According to a 2013 report in The Economist, the US produced 40% more energy from a similar capacity of wind power, because Chinese wind farms are not efficiently connected to the power grid.
Shanghai Electric Power Generation Engineering Company is one of the core businesses of Shanghai Electric Group, a large equipment manufacturing conglomerate in China.

Annual electricity generation from wind is measured in terawatt-hours (TWh) per year. This includes both onshore and offshore wind sources.
Areas with great wind power potential such as Gansu are sometimes far away from established industrial and residential centers. Coal-fired plants have a constituency of miners and local governments which wind-power projects lack. This has led to power generated by wind remaining underused. Transmission capacity of the grid hasn''t kept up with the growth of China''s wind farms. In 2009, only 72% (8.94 GW) of China''s total wind power capacity was connected to the grid. In 2014, 96.37 GW of

Wind power generation is defined as the conversion of wind energy into electrical energy using wind turbines, often organized in groups to form wind farms, which provides a clean and renewable source
A wind power plant is a renewable source of electrical energy. The wind turbine is designed to use the speed and power of wind and convert it into electrical energy.
