China to Ease Requirements for Small-Scale Wind Power

What’s new: China plans to waive licensing requirements and further simplify the approval process for some distributed wind power projects as the country overhauls the electricity market and makes massive investments in renewable energy.

According to a draft notice issued Thursday by the National Energy Administration, distributed wind power projects connected to the power grid with a voltage of 35 kilovolts or less will no longer be required to obtain a power business license.
