On April 9, the Huadian Yangjiang Sanshan Island VI Offshore Wind Farm Project, constructed by GEDI under an EPC general contract, successfully installed its first wind turbine, marking the full-scale commencement of construction for China's farthest offshore wind power project currently under development.

The Sanshan Island VI Project, located in the waters south of Hailing Island in Yangjiang, Guangdong Province, has a total installed capacity of 500MW. With water depths ranging from 46 to 50 meters, the site center is 82 kilometers from the mainland, with the furthest point reaching 89 kilometers offshore. The project is planned to feature 31 wind turbines, each with a unit capacity of 16.2MW. Upon completion, the project is expected to generate approximately 1.6 billion kWh of clean electricity annually, meeting the power needs of roughly 700,000 households. This is equivalent to saving over 500,000 tons of standard coal and reducing CO2 emissions by 1.26 million tons, which is of great significance for optimizing Guangdong's energy mix, advancing the realization of the "dual carbon" goals, and driving regional green economic development.

The ultra-long offshore distance of over 80 kilometers, coupled with deep-water conditions of nearly 50 meters and the changeable sea conditions in the open sea, poses heightened requirements for the project's construction. As the EPC general contractor, GEDI will leverage its strengths in overall coordination and technical expertise to comprehensively optimize technical schemes and workflows. By promoting the deep integration of design and construction, it will enhance project adaptability and construction efficiency in complex sea conditions, thereby ensuring steady and efficient progress in project construction.
