GE Energy will provide 23 1.5 megawatt turbines for the 34.5MW Shangyi Manjing wind farm, a 25 square kilometre site about 100km from Zhangjiakou city in Hebei province.
"The Shangyi Manjing wind farm is an excellent example of the growing global trend toward cleaner electricity choices," GE Energy's wind division manager Robert Gleitz said.
"China has a vast wind resource and an increasing need for electricity."
The Shangyi Manjing project is part of China's effort to have 20 gigawatts of sustainable energy capacity installed by 2020. Analysts have estimated China has the largest wind power capacity in the world, 250GW.
The farm will supply power to the North China Power Grid under the management of developers Guohua Energy, a subsidiary of the Gouhua Investment Company with a specific focus on energy project development.
