BEIJING (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): China is building the world’s largest commercial floating offshore wind farm off the coast of Hainan, in what analysts see as a sign that the growth of renewable energy is gathering momentum.
The wind power project, which has a capacity of 1 gigawatt (GW), is being built by the state-owned firm PowerChina, and will generate some 11 times more power than the current largest floating wind farm in Norway.
