The Cox's Bazar Wind Farm in Bangladesh, constructed by POWERCHINA, recently received a handover certificate from the project owner, US-DK Green Energy (Bangladesh) Co, marking the project's official completion.

The project's execution faced challenges such as prolonged local rainy seasons. POWERCHINA took effective measures to advance the project, providing the owner with excellent management services and professional technical support. The project successfully connected the southern and northern wind farms to the grid in May 2023 and July 2024, respectively, ultimately achieving full capacity generation and commencing commercial operations.

As Bangladesh's first large-scale centralized wind power project, Cox's Bazar has a total installed capacity of 66 megawatts. After completion, it is expected to generate an average annual output of 144.92 million kilowatt-hours, contributing to energy savings and environmental protection. This clean, pollution-free renewable energy will illuminate the lives of local residents and is vital for transforming and upgrading Bangladesh's power grid, supporting economic and societal high-quality green development.
