Abstract
Some key factors become emphases of China, such as adjustment of energy structure, reduction of greenhouse gas, decrease of environment pollution, and enhancement of energy security. Wind power generation is one of the power generation methods with mature technology and bright future both in scale and commerce. From the beginning of the 21st century, especially since the Renewable Energy Law of China passed in 2005, wind energy utilization in China moves forward rapidly. Yet some factors restricting the advancement still need to be solved. The paper makes a brief introduction to the wind energy resource, current status and future prospects of wind energy in China.
