China has made a significant breakthrough in renewable energy by successfully loading a 133-meter-long, 67-tonne wind turbine blade at Yangzhou Port, breaking the record for loading the longest blade in the Yangtze River Basin.
This fact highlights the growing importance of wind energy and the crucial role that the Port of Yangzhou plays in logistics for this sector.
This is how the wind turbine blade was loaded
During the loading process, a cooperative operation system with a gantry crane was used for the first time. This innovation, supported by sensors and image recognition technology, enabled real-time monitoring of the blades, lifting equipment, and vessels , ensuring that the operation was carried out efficiently and smoothly.
The introduction of these advanced technologies ensures that the handling of these large wind energy components becomes increasingly safer and faster.

Yangzhou Port, which has already established itself as a key loading and unloading hub for wind energy equipment on the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, is positioned as a key hub in the expansion of China’s renewable energy capabilities.
