<p>n today's complex environment, clear and sustainable energy is needed to support society development. How to develop the sustainable energy is a core issue in China. Compared with traditional energy, Wind energy has many advantages such as non-fuel cost, less pollution. And wind energy has the absolute advantage that it is worldwide  available. In many courtiers, wind energy has become a major part of their plans for sustainable development. The primary goal of this paper is to analysis advantages and disadvantages of wind power in China and the development potential of wind power in China. In this paper the main methodology is using the information about wind power in China, which is including current situation, development stage, industry development stage, and combining the real case to analysis wind power development potential in China. There are six parts of this paper which are the overview of wind power in china; case description, analysis, conclusions, suggestion, development perspectives and imagination In the first part, the overview of wind power in china, the history of wind power in china, wind resource distribution, wind power development stages, the situation of some key regions, wind  power industry develop stage and also some policies about wind power of Chinese government are discussed. The goal of this part is giving some fundamental information about wind power in China. In the second part, a real case has been described, and according to this case, the construction cost of a wind power plant in China has been discussed. The advantages and disadvantages of wind power are also analyzed based on this case study, such as long-team return, environmental impact, and also some other problem analysis. After the analysis parts, there are the conclusion parts, those parts are about the development perspectives and imagination of wind power in China.</p>

The wind industry has arrived at a state of technological maturity and is occasionally already today cost-competitive to conventional sources of energy. This thesis investigates the process of innovation that took place within the industry. A theoretical background into economical theory of innovation together with a status quo assessment of today's wind industry serves as introduction to the topic. In the analytical part, inducement mechanisms and functions of technological development will be identified as crucial drivers for innovation within the sector. The key findings of this thesis lead to conclude that it is now the responsibility of the industry to becoming fully cost-competitive to conventional sources. The advancement of technological lifecycle will primarily depend on turbine manufacturers and their capability to drive innovation more independently from governments.
