About 3,000 words, roughly 8 minutes to finish.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&#10;&lt;hr&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;By the end of 2025, China&amp;rsquo;s cumulative installed wind capacity reached roughly 640 GW; wind generated 997 TWh of electricity in 2024 — about one tenth of the national total. At this scale, every tenth of a percentage point in conversion efficiency translates into billions of kilowatt-hours (extrapolated from the statistics above). Against the backdrop of grid parity and electricity market reform, every kilowatt-hour lost maps directly to revenue: the difference in efficiency is the difference in profit.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
