In context: how this plant compares
At 50 MW, Raoping Haishan Wind is around the median wind plant in China (49 MW). Technically it is described as Offshore hard mount. Its current lifecycle status is “Announced” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Wind turbines convert moving air into electricity; output is variable and site-dependent, and modern turbines deliver some of the lowest-cost new generation on many grids.
Capacity comparison computed from the WRI Global Power Plant Database; fuel-type context is general engineering background.
