State-owned enterprises were leading actors in the public tender. China’s top five state-owned power companies, i.e., Huaneng, Datang, Guodian, Huadian and CPIC, and their subsidiary new energy companies, participated in the public tender.

China’s first round of public tender for concession offshore wind farms, initiated in May this year, comprise four projects that are based in east China’s Jiangsu Province.
