Beijing claims is for testing one floating generator of the country's largest and is expected to lead to the disputed waters in the South China Sea in the near future.

Thus, after a series of moves built illegally cultivated in the South China Sea islands, despite the reaction of the countries of the region and the world, China is now attempting to put resumed power supplies to the base military that it had blatantly erected in the island which they occupied other countries.

Strengthening maritime ambitions claims

South China Morning Post newspaper said floating generator is also one of the largest aircraft in the world, with the ability to play more than 200 kilowatts of electricity can (kw).

Power substations are being tested in offshore mining development zones Van Son, near the city of Zhuhai (Guangdong province). Station size of half a football field, is designed with the function of transferring the motion of the sea wave power, has the ability to operate both in the calm sea weather or hurricane.

When there is a storm, the power station will automatically sink part and leaving only a small part surface outcrops from sea to avoid damage. This work does not use a fixed mooring to park so it can float freely when there are large waves, minimizing damage.

An unnamed Chinese expert said the plan aims to reduce the "threat without electricity supply for China's radar system" in this area. The giant power station is one of the tools to help China strengthen absurd claims in the South China Sea.

Will develop a series of floating power stations?

Experts from the Institute of Social Sciences of China, where development projects that the country is planning to build a series of similar floating power station (station using wave energy) for power generation near islands South China Sea dispute.

The experts also said that for the construction of civil and military projects "illegally" in the South China Sea should be one of the issues that Beijing is calculating the most and must settle for it is sure sure enough power to military radar systems in the area of ​​continuous operation.

"The military radar in a state of energy poverty should have to provide full-time power to the area. The introduction of fuel to remote islands in the costly and time consuming. Boats can also easily affected by bad weather and unfriendly countries all around "- a Chinese expert in setting up the project team said.

However, university professor of science electrical engineering Xian Li Ming suspect this works is not enough capacity to provide military radar systems. On the other hand, operating expenses floating power stations is also a problem.

The professor explains a power station using sea wave power generators need to form currents with the highest power should be a lot of money. However, floating power stations are being tested at Van Son only investment cost of about 20 million yuan (3.13 million US dollars) is not enough.

"A radar warning system of China currently consumes over 200kw power level, whether floating power station has enough power to provide electricity as they say it or not" - Mr. Li emphasized.


Currently, the generator of the US and Australia in relief capable of Clause 150 kw. So far, samples of power stations using the largest wave energy is active in Portugal, with a capacity of 750 kw.
