What is end-year rush to complete wind power facilities?
We report the outage hours to give a more intuitive indicator. The measure of end-year rush to complete wind power facilities, rush, is defined as the capacity installed during December as a share of that year's total. We expect that the end-year installation rush affects electric reliability during the following year.
How does the Year-End installation Rush affect wind and solar power?
The notable prevalence of both wind and solar power in the northwestern grid renders it susceptible to the disruptive effects of the year-end installation rush in wind power. Given its high share of wind power, any concentrated surge in installations towards the end of the year intensifies the strain on the existing infrastructure.
How does end-year installation Rush affect wind power reliability?
Incentive structure led to rushes to install wind power before year end expiration. Use provincial electric reliability data to show effects of end-year installation rush. Find strong negative effects especially in Northwestern grid with high wind share. Reliability in urban areas is more affected than rural areas by installation rush.
Do end-year rushes aggravate the shock of wind power penetration?
The structure of wind-power incentives in China has led to the phenomenon of end-year rushes to install wind power (more details in Section 2 ). In this study, we examine how these end-year rushes of wind power installation may aggravate the shock of wind power penetration on electric reliability.

This report provides a comprehensive overview of offshore wind targets worldwide, covering national, subnational and regional commitments, and showing that governments remain broadly committed to offshore wind, despite recent challenges. Key findings:. The first U. offshore wind farm was built in 2016 off Rhode Island's Block Island. America's first large-scale offshore wind farms began sending power to the Northeast in early 2024, but a wave of wind farm project cancellations and rising costs have left many people with doubts about the. . The European Union alone increased its target of 300 GW of installed offshore wind capacity to 360 GW by 20501, nearly a tenfold increase from today's installed capacity. More than 66 GW is expected to be tendered globally in 2025, but competitive intensity is weakening. At the request of the Global Offshore Wind Alliance (GOWA), Ember has developed an authoritative and up-to-date overview of offshore wind targets. . In this next industrial revolution, countries that leverage their abundant wind resources to move fastest towards an electrified future will enhance their competitiveness and gain strategic advantage over their peers. Growth in utility-scale and distributed solar PV more than doubles, representing nearly 80% of worldwide renewable electricity capacity. .
