Project Altitude

5200m

Voltage grade

1140V

Power Level

5.XMW

The Background of Our Story

The Datang Baxiu Wind Power Project, situated at a breathtaking altitude of over 5,000 meters in Qamdo, Tibet, has established a new world record as the highest-altitude wind farm on the planet. As the pioneering wind energy project in southeastern Tibet, it underscores China's leading expertise in developing clean energy solutions for extreme high-altitude environments. Generating over 200 million kilowatt-hours of green electricity annually, this landmark project represents a monumental leap toward a sustainable energy future on the "roof of the world."

Extreme Conditions

Operating at an extreme altitude of over 5,000 meters, the project contends with a unique and severe set of environmental challenges. The rarefied atmosphere and intense ultraviolet (UV) radiation accelerate the degradation of critical materials and insulation. Furthermore, the equipment must withstand extreme thermal stress, with temperatures plummeting to below -30°C and enduring drastic daily fluctuations that can exceed 30°C. Compounding these issues, the low air density significantly impairs the cooling efficiency of components, posing a constant risk of overheating and placing immense strain on all systems.
