LHASA -- China has achieved another breakthrough in wind power development at ultra-high altitudes, with the world's highest wind power project in Xizang autonomous region generating over 22 million kWh of electricity as of Tuesday. Invested and constructed by companies including the Datang Xizang Energy Development Co., Ltd., the project with the highest nacelle at an altitude of 5,305 meters set a new record for China, as well as the world, in wind power projects in terms of altitude. At the wind farm in Xizang's Baxoi County, which began operation on Oct. 31, workers overcame a range of technical challenges, including blade stall and atypical condition control in the ultra-high altitude area, Xu said.
