1. Overview of the wind power tower industry

In the total cost of wind power project construction, tower expenditure is generally 800 to 1,000 yuan/kW, accounting for about 14% of onshore wind power construction costs and 5% of offshore wind power project costs.

2. Development status of global wind power tower industry

The main materials for manufacturing wind power towers include steel plates, flanges, and anticorrosive paint. Steel plates are the main raw materials for the tower. The downstream of the tower is mainly used in the wind power industry.
Thanks to technological progress and business model innovation, the wind energy industry is developing rapidly. In 2019, the global installed capacity of wind power was 60.4GW, an increase of 19% from 2018, which was the second highest year in wind power history. Among them, the newly installed capacity of onshore wind power was 54.3GW, and that of offshore wind power was 6.1GW. As of the end of 2019, the cumulative installed capacity of global wind power reached 651GW.

With the increase in installed capacity of wind power generation, major global wind turbine companies have also accelerated the expansion of wind power tower capacity. Such as Chongshan, Dongkuk, Win&P in South Korea, Trinity and Broadwind in the United States, GRI, Windar, Valmont, Welcon in Europe,etc.

3. Current status of China's wind power tower industry

In recent years, the competitiveness of the tower industry in Europe and the United States has been lost and revenue has been declining year after year, only barely achieving a breakeven or even large losses. After falling into trouble, the United States, Mexico, Australia and other countries initiated trade protections against China in order to protect their local tower industries. However, the Chinese tower industry has shown strong resilience under the double counter-pressure of many countries, and the total export volume has achieved sustained years. Rapid growth.

From the perspective of the domestic market, in recent years, the demand for my country's wind power industry has grown rapidly. Data show that the newly installed wind power capacity of 6.32 million kilowatts in the first half of 2020, a year-on-year decrease of 277%. Many domestic companies have also increased their efforts to build wind power towers.

On May 21, 2019, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Notice on Improving the Policy for Wind Power Feed-in Tariffs". This policy clarifies the deadline for national wind power subsidies, that is, onshore wind power projects approved before the end of 2018, which have not yet been completed before the end of 2020. The state no longer subsidizes the onshore wind power projects approved between January 1, 2019 and the end of 2020, and the grid connection is not completed before the end of 2021. The state no longer subsidizes; The approved onshore wind power projects have fully realized parity on the grid, and the state no longer subsidies. Affected by the subsidy node, it is expected that there will be a certain amount of rush installation before the end of 2020, and the approved wind power projects are expected to accelerate the realization of grid connection, which will further promote the demand for wind power towers.
At present, the main manufacturers of wind power towers in my country include Tianshun Wind Power, Tianneng Heavy Industry, Taisheng Wind Power, and Daikin Heavy Industry.In 2019, the tower sales of these four companies were 506,600 tons, 286,200 tons, 205,800 tons and 204,600 tons respectively.

4. Under the demand for installed wind power, the demand for towers has broad prospects

With the demand for installed wind power, the demand for towers in the domestic market has also grown rapidly. In recent years, China's wind power planning and design, technical standards, operation control, dispatch management and other aspects have made great progress, and the development characteristics and laws of wind power have also been deepened. Wind power standards have grown from scratch, and technology has gone from following to leading. From small to large scale, the ability of large-scale power grids to operate large-scale wind power has gradually reached the world's leading level. Accompanying the enlargement of the wind turbine is the enlargement of the tower supporting it.
In addition, driven by parity, domestic wind power shows an obvious trend of large capacity, long blades, and tall towers, which puts forward higher requirements on the technical strength and supply capacity of tower companies, and is listed as four private towers. The leading companies represented by the company have larger scale, better profitability, and stronger expansion capabilities. The concentration of the domestic tower industry will further increase.
