National Key Laboratory of Wind Energy and Solar Simulation and Testing and Certification Technology
The Key Laboratory of National Energy Wind and Solar Energy Simulation and Testing Certification Technology was approved by the National Energy Administration in September 2011 and constructed by the China General Certification Center. The key laboratory aims to become an internationally renowned, fully functional, and technologically advanced professional service institution for wind and solar energy. Focusing on the significant needs of China's wind and solar energy technology fields, it focuses on conducting research on relevant standards, testing and inspection key technologies, and certification evaluation systems, promoting the improvement of standards, testing technologies, and certification systems in the wind and solar energy fields.
The key laboratory has over 200 research and development personnel, and has over 100 sets of portable mobile testing systems that meet the requirements of demonstration and evaluation, including wind power and photovoltaic simulation computing platforms, wind turbine and key component laboratories, Baoding blade full size testing laboratories, Zhangbei research-oriented experimental wind farm, Inner Mongolia Tuoketuo Outdoor Photovoltaic Product Demonstration Base, Zhejiang Jiaxing Photovoltaic Testing Laboratory, wind power and photovoltaic remote monitoring center, and various types of portable mobile testing systems, We have developed an internationally advanced research and development and experimental capability that covers the entire lifecycle of wind and solar energy.
The full-scale blade laboratory of the key laboratory became the first wind turbine blade testing laboratory in China with CNAS and CMA qualifications in 2012, and obtained the IECRE TL laboratory qualification in 2019, implementing experimental testing standards that are in line with international standards, and issuing authoritative reports for blade testing. Since its establishment, more than 100 blade related tests have been completed, including blade raw materials, blade components, full size structural testing of 100 meter blades, non-destructive testing, blade tracking testing, as well as related testing of 5 MW wind turbine bearings and pitch systems.
