UL Solutions has certified Sany Renewable Energy’s 5MW onshore wind turbine in Beijing.
In addition, Sany Renewable Energy was acknowledged as a laboratory partner by UL Solutions during an award ceremony.
Sany Renewable Energy’s 5MW onshore unit was certified by DNV in 2021, which labelled the company as the first wind turbine supplier in China to obtain the international certification of large MW machine with a box-type substation.
The hardware adopts a platform-based design approach and mature “high-speed double-fed” technology to ensure high reliability, high efficiency, low operation and maintenance costs, and resulting in greater economic value for customers, according to the company.
Adding turbines into the power grid has been a new breakthrough for Sany Renewable Energy’s onshore wind power R&D and will provide solid basis for low-priced grid connection.
Director of Sany Renewable Energy’s testing and experiment centre Dr Wang Jizhou said: “Under the IEC RE system, the company’s self-built laboratory facilities are exhibiting greater development potential, and this partnership with UL Solutions will provide reliable support in terms of meeting standards, R&D design and testing, wind turbine performance evaluation, and more that will further elevate the product’s core competitive advantages.”
