Offshore wind farm generates 200m kWh As of Sept 6, 2011, the offshore wind farm, China's first, which operates 34 wind turbineseach with a capacity of 3MW, had generated more than 200 million kWh of power since it startedoperation in June 2010. The wind farm has saved 86,000 tons of standard coal each year and reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 237,400 tons

This suggests that the windfarm produced 2,000 full hours in 14 or 15 months (plus rampup?), so a capacity factor significantly below 20%, which is really, really low (European offshore is typically above 40%) Wind power
We've seen the results with high speed rail.
Apparently the build-up of terrestrial wind in China has seen a lot of low-performing parks too. It is rightly acknowledged that people of faith have no monopoly of virtue - Queen Elizabeth II
