POWER: CCCEU Rejects Claims of Chinese Threat in 270MW German Wind Project

POWER
BulletPower BulletsEnergy BulletsCommodities

The China Chamber of Commerce to the EU (CCCEU) has rejected claims that Chinese-made turbines in Luxcara's 270MW Waterkant offshore wind project could pose a threat to Germany's political system, it said, cited by Renews.biz.

  • In a 5 March letter, CCCEU stated that claims about Chinese firms exploiting turbine sensors for data collection are "technically implausible and lack factual basis.
  • The organisation emphasised that all control systems, data storage, and remote management for the Waterkant project are maintained by German and European developers.
  • Additionally, CCCEU argued that excluding Chinese firms based on unverified security concerns would constitute trade protectionism and contradict the EU's commitment to free markets.
  • The CCCEU urged German authorities to avoid creating barriers that hinder clean energy cooperation and reaffirmed Chinese companies' willingness to engage in dialogue with German and EU stakeholders.
  • The letter was a response to Politico's report citing concerns from the German defense minister about potential data harvesting and turbine sabotage by China.
