Wind Energy Industry

Background

Wind Energy is an emerging industry in China and also shows signs of growing demand and bearing product shortages.

Current government stimulus packages are promoting Wind Energy expansion. This has caused many suppliers to focus on the bearing products needed to support Wind Energy applications.

Supply deficiencies in gears, gearboxes and bearings are forcing companies that are manufacturing, installing and servicing wind turbine equipment to become resourceful.
