ABSTRACT

The development of the Chinese wind power sector has been the result of diligent work by many key companies, government ministries and individual people over a period of more than 30 years. As the director of China’s General Certification Center (CGC), I am deeply respectful of the great leaders, executives and researchers who have built this great industry of the future. In this chapter, I will share a few of the many stories and perspectives about the development of wind power in China. 27.1  Wu Gang’s Dream and PhilosophyDuring the spring festival of 2012, I received a text message from Wu Gang, Chairman and CEO of Goldwind, “Xiao Qin, I would like

to express our respect for you, all on behalf of Goldwind, for there would be no wind power like what it is today in China without you. From the first version of Regulation in Tianchi, Xinjiang, to today’s international recognition of CGC brand, how painful and strenuous it has been! Yet for China’s wind power, you stayed, persisted and persevered. All thanks to you, China’s wind power thrives!”
