XINJIANG GOLDWIND SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 June 2017

1. CORPORATE AND GROUP INFORMATION

Xinjiang Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd. is a joint stock company with limited liability registered in Xinjiang in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), which was established on 26 March 2001. The Company’s shares have been listed on The Shenzhen Stock Exchange from 26 December 2007 and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Hong Kong Stock Exchange”) from 8 October 2010. The registered office of the Company is located at 107 Shanghai Road, Economic & Technology Development District, Urumqi, Xinjiang, the PRC.

The Group is involved in the following principal activities:

• Manufacture and sale of wind turbine generators and wind power components;

• Provision of wind power related consultancy, wind farm construction and maintenance services;  Development and operation of wind farms, consisting of wind power generation service provided by the Group’s wind farms as well as the sale of wind farms, if appropriate; and

• Development and operation of water treatment plants and finance lease services.

In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Company has no controlling shareholder.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGES IN THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 Basis of preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2017 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IASs 34”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (the “Listing Rules”).

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for available-for-sale investments, derivative financial instruments and equity investments which have been measured at fair value. Disposal groups held for sale are stated at the lower of their carrying amounts and fair values less costs to sell.

2.2 New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016, except for the adoption of revised International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) effective as of 1 January 2017. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

The nature and the effect of these changes are disclosed below. Although these amendments apply for the first time in 2017, they do not have a material impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group. The nature and the impact of the amendments are described below:

Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows: Disclosure Initiative

The amendments require entities to provide disclosures about changes in their liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes (such as foreign exchange gains or losses). On initial application of the amendment, entities are not required to provide comparative information for preceding periods. The Group is not required to provide additional disclosures in its interim condensed consolidated financial statements, but will disclose additional information in its annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

XINJIANG GOLDWIND SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 June 2017

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGES IN THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2. 2.2 New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group (continued)

Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes: Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses

The amendments clarify that an entity needs to consider whether tax law restricts the sources of taxable profits against which it may make deductions on the reversal of that deductible temporary difference. Furthermore, the amendments provide guidance on how an entity should determine future taxable profits and explain the circumstances in which taxable profit may include the recovery of some assets for more than their carrying amount.

Entities are required to apply the amendments retrospectively. However, on initial application of the amendments, the change in the opening equity of the earliest comparative period may be recognised in opening retained earnings (or in another component of equity, as appropriate), without allocating the change between opening retained earnings and other components of equity. Entities applying this relief must disclose that fact.

The Group applied the amendment retrospectively. However, the application has no effect on the Group’s financial position and performance as the Group has no deductible temporary differences or assets that are in the scope of the amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 12 included in Annual Improvements Cycle - 2014-2016 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities: Clarification of the scope of disclosure requirements in IFRS 12

The amendments clarify that the disclosure requirements in IFRS 12, other than those in paragraphs B10 to B16, apply to an entity’s interest in a subsidiary, a joint venture or an associate (or a portion of its interest in a joint venture or an associate) that is classified (or included in a disposal group that is classified) as held for sale.

The amendment is not expected to have any significant impact on the Group’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

• 2.3 Issued but not yet effective IFRSs

The Group has not applied the following new and revised IFRSs, that have been issued but are not yet effective, in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 2	Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment _Transactions_1
Amendments to IFRS 4	Applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 _Insurance Contracts_1

The board of directors of the Company does not recommend the payment of any interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2017 (six months ended 30 June 2016: Nil).

1. EARNINGS PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ORDINARY EQUITY HOLDERS OF THE PARENT

On 24 August 2017, the Company has paid 3 shares of stock dividends to all ordinary equity holders per each 10 shares on the basis of the ordinary shares of 2,735,541,000 at the end of 2016. The dividend distribution of the above shares happened after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements, and the earnings per share shall be retrospective adjusted for all such events that happen in the reporting period. The adjusted number of ordinary shares was 3,556,203,300 shares. Basic earnings per share for the same period last year should be calculated based on the adjusted ordinary shares. The calculation of the basic earnings per share amount for the period is based on the number of the adjusted ordinary shares of 3,556,203,300 (six months ended 30 June 2016: 3,556,203,300) during the period.

For those financial instruments classified as equity, if the distributions are cumulative, the undeclared amounts of the cumulative distributions were deducted in arriving at earnings for the purposes of the basic earnings per share calculation. On the other hand, if the distributions are non-cumulative, only the amount of dividends declared in respect of the year should be deducted in arriving at the profit attributable to ordinary equity holders.

The Group had no potentially dilutive ordinary shares in issue during the six months ended 30 June 2017 and 2016.

Portion classified as non-current assets (i)	(1,878,899)	(1,857,030)
Current portion	17,691,913	16,746,456

The Group normally allows a credit period of not more than three months to its customers. For retention money receivables, the due dates usually range from two to five years after the completion of commissioning for wind turbines. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by senior management. In view of the aforementioned and the fact that the Group’s trade and bills receivables relate to a large number of diversified customers, there is no significant concentration of credit risk. The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances. Trade and bills receivables are non-interest-bearing.

• (i) The non-current portion of trade receivables mainly represented the amount of receivables for retentions held by customers at 30 June 2017 and 31 December 2016.

An ageing analysis of trade and bills receivables as at the end of the reporting period, based on the invoice date and net of provisions, is as follows:

XINJIANG GOLDWIND SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 June 2017

13. TRADE AND BILLS RECEIVABLES (continued)

Included in the above provision for impairment of trade receivables is a provision for individually impaired trade receivables of RMB170,087,000 (31 December 2016: RMB186,381,000) with a carrying amount before provision of RMB261,891,000 (31 December 2016: RMB273,019,000).

The individually impaired trade receivables relate to customers that were in default in principal payments and only a portion of the receivables is expected to be recovered.

The ageing analysis of the trade receivables that are not considered to be impaired is as follows:

	As at	As at
	30 June 2017	31 December 2016
	(Unaudited)	(Audited)
	RMB’000	RMB’000
Neither past due nor impaired	10,790,343	8,810,463
Less than 6 months past due	3,223,805	4,413,572
	14,014,148	13,224,035

Receivables that were neither past due nor impaired relate to a large number of diversified customers for whom there was no recent history of default.

Receivables that were past due but not impaired relate to a number of independent customers that have a good track record with the Group. Based on past experience, the directors are of the opinion that no provision for impairment is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the balances are still considered fully recoverable.

The amount due from Xinjiang Wind Power Company Limited (“Xinjiang Wind Power”) ( 新疆風能有限 責任公司 ), a shareholder holding a 13.74% interest in the Company, and the amounts due from the Group’s joint ventures and associates included in the Group’s trade and bills receivables are as follows:

	As at	As at

Joint ventures	18,346	36,130
Associates	318,026	284,040
	336,876	320,674

The above balances are unsecured, non-interest-bearing and repayable on credit terms similar to those offered to the independent customers of the Group.

	RMB’000	RMB’000

Receivables for finance lease services	2,542,632	1,909,653

Portion classified as non-current assets	(3,158,623)	(2,451,312	)
Current portion	370,649	336,382

Receivables for service concession agreements arose from service concession contracts to build and operate water treatment plants and were recognised to the extent that the Group has an unconditional right to receive cash from or at the direction of the designees.

Receivables for finance lease services arose from finance lease contracts to lease equipment to clients and were recognised to the extent that the Group has the right to collect rental income from clients.

Financial receivables were unbilled receivables, and were neither past due nor impaired. Financial receivables were mainly due from governmental authorities in Mainland China or several clients which have good credit records. The directors are of the opinion that no provision for impairment is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the balances are still considered fully recoverable. The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over these balances.

	RMB’000	RMB’000
Letters of credit issued	151,330	199,438

Compensation arrangement in connection with the bank
loans of the Group’s customers (i)	312,300	332,282
	12,798,006	12,181,457

The directors were of the view that the fair value of the guarantees was not significant and therefore no provision for financial guarantees was made.

• (i) Pursuant to the agreement entered into between the Company and a bank (“Bank”), a risk compensation arrangement in connection with the loans of the Group’s overseas customers, i.e., the wind farm project companies, was made as follows: (1) the Company deposited with the Bank the provisions in cash as a risk compensation fund at 10% of the loan borrowings provided by the Bank to the wind farm project companies. If the wind farm project companies fail to make due payments to the Bank, the Bank is entitled to deduct the amounts from the provisions made by the Company in the designated account. If the wind farm project companies subsequently repay the amounts due, the Bank will transfer the amounts to the Company’s risk compensation fund account; (2) If the wind farm project companies fail to make due payments to the Bank for two consecutive interest periods, the Company shall repay all the outstanding borrowings to the Bank on behalf of the wind farm project companies, and then the Bank will transfer its receivables due from the wind farm project companies to the Company.

Up to 30 June 2017, the above risk compensation arrangement covering for bank loans of one overseas wind farm project company amounted to RMB312,300,000.

The bank loans of these overseas wind farm project companies were secured by mortgages over the property, plant and equipment of these overseas wind farm project companies and by the pledge of the electricity charge rights, and/or their shareholders’ equity interests in them.

In 2015, Beijing Tianrun entered into an agreement with the creditor bank, Chifeng Jinneng New Energy Investment Co., Ltd. and Chifeng Xinneng. According to the agreement, when Chifeng Xinneng fails to repay the bank loans on schedule, Beijing Tianrun shall repurchase the entire share interests in Chifeng Xinneng, and the consideration equals a certain percentage of the net assets of Chifeng Xinneng at that time. Up to 30 June 2017, Chifeng Xinneng operated well, and the risk exposure from the above repurchase clause was insignificant.

At each reporting date, the corporate finance team analyses the movements in the values of financial instruments and determines the major inputs applied in the valuation. The valuation is reviewed and approved by the chief financial officer. The valuation process and results are discussed with the audit committee twice a year for interim and annual financial reporting.

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

30. FAIR VALUE AND FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

The fair values of the non-current portions of the pledged deposits, trade and bills receivables, financial receivables, trade and bills payables, financial assets included in prepayments, deposits and other receivables, financial liabilities included in other payables, advance from customers and accruals and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows using rates currently available for instruments with similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The Group’s own non-performance risk for the non-current portion of interest-bearing bank and other borrowings as at 30 June 2017 was assessed to be insignificant.

The fair values of listed equity investments are based on quoted market prices. The fair value of unlisted available-for-sale equity investments cannot be measured reliably because they do not have quoted market prices in an active market and the range of reasonable fair value estimate is so significant.

The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with the financial institutions. Derivative financial instruments, including forward currency contracts and an interest rate swap, are measured using valuation techniques similar to forward currency and swap models, using present value calculations. The models incorporate various market observable inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rate and interest rate curves. The carrying amounts of forward currency contracts and the interest rate swap are the same as their fair values.

As at 30 June 2017, the marked to market value of the derivatives was net of a credit/debit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk.

Management Discussion and Analysis

During the first half of 2017, the global economy kept being in a state of modest recovery: developed economies grew steadily; American, Eurozone and Japanese economies as a whole began to rebound; and emerging markets remained as the driving force for the world’s economic growth. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), driven by economic growth in China and India, emerging economies were expected to contribute more than three quarters of global economic growth in 2017; the global economic growth projected for 2017 is expected to increase by 0.1 percentage point from the original forecast to 3.5%.

During the Reporting Period, mainly due to stronger new driving forces cultivated by deepening supply-side structural reform, the national economy continued to be stable whilst improving, featuring rising employment, basic price stability and optimized balance of payments. In the first half of 2017 China’s economy maintained mid to high level growth rate with its GDP increased by 6.9% YoY.

According to “ The Analysis and Forecast Report on the Situation of Electricity Supply and Demand in China in the First Half of 2017 ” (《2017年上半年全國電力供需形勢分析預測報告》), published by the China Electricity Council, the national electricity consumption increased by 6.3% YoY, with growth rate increased by 3.6 percentage points YoY. Along with the optimization of power mix and market layout, newly added non-fossil fuel energy accounted for 73.4% of newly installed capacity, representing an increase of 20% YoY. Newly installed wind power capacity in China’s east and central region represented 54% of nationwide newly installed wind power capacity. Wind power utilization rate increased by 67 hours YoY.

I. MAIN POLICY REVIEW

The “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan” period is crucial for China’s shifting to low-carbon power and critical for the implementation of the energy development strategy. In order to meet the target proportion of non-fossil energy, push forward the transformation and upgrade of energy structure, and facilitate the sustainable and healthy development of renewable energy represented by wind power, the PRC implemented various policies in the first half of 2017 to consolidate the steady growth of the wind power industry through industry regulations, installation planning and subsidy scheme.

1. Launch the long term plan for the energy system and promote clean energy as the main incremental capacity of energy supply

On 25 April 2017, NDRC and NEA jointly announced “Revolution Strategy for Energy Generation and Usage (2016-2030)”. According the plan, non-fossil energy will account for 50% of total power consumption by 2030, with higher penetration of wind and solar energy by technical improvement of power generation efficiency and lowering cost, which will make renewable energy compatible with traditional energy.

The strategic plan also mentioned China’s long term energy generation layout. For renewable power, eastern area will develop more distributed renewable power and offshore wind power, middle area will develop distributed renewable power, southwestern area will actively build up hydro power base and biomass, and northwestern area will develop comprehensive renewable power bases, while northeastern area will retire its coal power projects and develop renewable energy aggressively.

2. Strengthen support towards the renewable energy development plan to facilitate orderly and healthy growth of the industry

46

On 28 July 2017, the NEA published the “Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan on Renewable Energy Development” (《關於可再生能源發展“十三五”規劃實施 的指導意見》) to encourage the sustainable, healthy and orderly development of the renewable energy sector. The document required all competent energy authorities at the provincial, regional and municipal level to prioritise the transmission and consumption of renewable energy in making regional plans on the construction scale and layout of renewable energy facility, with the view of boosting renewable energy consumption through cross-provincial and cross-regional UHV transmission channels.

The NEA also issued the “Proposal on Scale of New Wind Power Construction (2017-2020)” (《2017-2020年風電新增建設規模方案》), and proposed to increase installed wind power capacity by 110.41GW for 2017 to 2020 in total, which is 30.65GW, 28.84GW, 26.6GW and 24.31GW respectively. It will result in a cumulative installed capacity of 126 GW in 2020.

3. Optimise the encouraging policies for renewable energy to strengthen competitiveness in the market

On 3 February 2017, the NDRC, Treasury and NEA jointly published the “Notice on Trial Implementation of Renewable Energy Green Certificate Issuance and Voluntary Transaction” (《關 於試行可再生能源綠色電力證書核發及自願認購交易制度的通知》). Onshore wind and solar (distributed projects are excluded) could receive green certificates based on their power generation. Volunteered purchase started on 1 July 2017, and portfolio and mandate transaction will be implemented from 2018.

On 28 June 2017, the China National Renewable Energy Centre issued the “Implementation Rules for Voluntary Purchase Trading of Green Certificate (Trial)” (《綠色電力證書自願認購交易實施 細則（試行）》), which further clarified the implementation rules relating to green certification, markets for green certificate trading, methods of trading, capital settlement and green certificate delivery, information disclosure of transactions, termination of trading and dispute resolution.

On 17 May 2017, the Comprehensive Division of the NEA published the “Notice on Approval Works for Grid-Parity Demonstration Wind Power Projects” (《關於開展風電平價上網示範工作 的通知》), which required all administrative energy authorities at provincial, regional and municipal level and of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps to organise wind power development enterprises to apply for the grid-parity demonstration wind power projects and select one to two projects to be submitted to the NEA. The notice also stated that the construction scale of the demonstration projects is to be negotiated and determined by the competent provincial, regional and municipal energy authorities and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps together with the power grid enterprises, and shall not be subject to the annual cap.

4. Encourage enterprises to implement effective supervision and control for the reasonable planning, distribution and development of the industry

On 17 February 2017, the NEA published the “Notice on the Results of Wind Power Construction Monitoring and Warning” (《關於發佈2017年度風電投資监測預警結果的通知》), which categorized Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Ningxia, Gansu, and Xinjiang (including Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps) as red warning zones for wind power development and construction in 2017. Newly connection and installation is suspended. This policy is aiming to guide wind investment in regional layout and reduce curtailment.

On 1 June 2017, the Northwest Energy Bureau of the NEA published the “Northwestern China New Energy Development Plan and Implementation Regulatory Report”. It pointed out that the main two

47

reasons for wind power and solar power curtailment in Northwestern China were insufficient capacity of peak load regulation and the limited transmission capacity of the system. Cross-regional delivery of new energy in the form of direct current will be an important way to enhance the utilisation rate of new energy in Northwestern provinces and promote the consumption of new energy.

II. INDUSTRY REVIEW

Supported by policies mentioned above, China's wind power sector kept steady growth in the first half of 2017. Wind consumption ratio gradually improved while curtailment reduced significantly. Offshore wind market also accelerated. Wind power construction layout improved gradually.

1. Stable industry development

China's wind power sector kept steady growth in the first half of 2017. According to data from NEA, newly connected capacity in the first half of 2017 was 6.01GW, and cumulative connected wind capacity was 154 GW as of end of June 2017, taking 9.4% of power mix in China. Wind power generation at the same period was 149 Terawatt hours, indicating 5% of penetration ratio, which is 0.7 percentage point higher compared to same period last year.

2.Improved wind curtailment

Wind curtailment improved significantly thanks to supporting policies issued by NDRC and NEA last year regarding wind power purchase priority. For the first half of the year, national wind utilization rate was 984 hours, representing 67 hours increase YoY. Utilization rate in Yunnan Province was 1,592 hours and in Sichuan Province was 1,498 hours respectively, remaining at the highest level national wide. Curtailed wind power was 23.5 Terawatt hours, and curtailment ratio was 14%, decreased by 7 percentage points compared with the same period last year. All provinces except for Shaanxi and Yunnan have experienced better wind power consumption in this year. The curtailment in Xinjiang, Gansu, Liaoning, Jilin, Ningxia and Inner Mongolia has improved by over 10 percentage points YoY.

3.Accelerating wind installation in middle, eastern and southern area

According to China's Thirteenth Five Year Plan, the majority of China newly installation will be located in middle, eastern and southern area in the next several years. In the first half of this year, newly connected capacity in middle, eastern and southern area with curtailment ratio of zero or at a reasonable low level has taken over 80%. Among which, Qinghai Province connected 640 MW, Hebei Province connected 580 MW, same as Henan, and Jiangxi Province connected 520 MW. In those area with severe curtailment, newly connected capacity decreased significantly. For example, there was no newly connection in Gansu Province and Jilin Province. There was only 300MW and 140MW newly connected capacity in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia, respectively, showing a clear geographic shift.

4. Offshore wind power gained momentum

According to China's Thirteenth Five Year Plan, China will achieve more than 5 GW of cumulative offshore connected capacity by 2020. And there will be over 10 GW of offshore projects that have start construction by then. Based on CWEA's statistics, there was only 1.63 GW of connected offshore wind power by the end of 2016, indicating that there will be an acceleration of offshore wind power development in 2017. Therefore, in the first half of 2017, the public tendering for offshore wind projects was very active. Local governments such as Jiangsu, Guangdong and Shandong also announced their ambitious planning on offshore wind power development. Benefited

48

by amended offshore wind policies, and reduction on constriction cost contributed by technology improvements, China's offshore wind power market will realize a higher annual installation during the period of Thirteenth Five Year Plan.

2. Technology R&D and Product Certification

The continual improvement of R&D capabilities provides the solid foundation for customer value maximization. Goldwind is committed to meeting market and customer demands and strengthens its overall product competitiveness by combining product optimisation and upgrade with new product development. It continuously enriches the product lines while consolidating and strengthening its technical advantages, with the view of integrating the key technology applications in various fields of WTGs and the full optimisation and upgrade of product hardware and software.

a)Product Research and Development

For the purposes of enhancing the overall competitiveness of products and meeting the needs of industry development and market expansion, the Group launched the GW3.0MW(S) WTGs to the market in 2017. This model has superior functionality performance, adopts modular design and has highly intelligent features. It is also equipped with innovative and exclusive dual cable design and flexible power rectification technology. Since its debut, the model has gained acceptance and recognition all over the world.

During the Reporting Period, the Group continued to push forward the R&D of the 2.0MW and 2.5MW WTGs series. Based on the well-established 2.5MW WTGs series, the Group released the extreme low-wind speed WTG GW130/2500 to meet the market demand. In the meantime, it strengthened product adaptability and completed the development of the 2.0MW and 2.5MW series towers.

b) Product Certification

In the first half of 2017, Goldwind was granted six type certificates and six design assessment certificates, of which two models of the 2.0MW platform (GW115/2200; GW121/2000) and the 121/3000 model of the 3.0MW platform received the model certificates from China General Certification Center; the GW121/2500_120mHH model of the 2.5MW platform obtained the type certificate from DNV-GL, an internationally recognised certification agency; and the GW136/3400 and GW140/3400 models, as well as the GW154/6700 model of the 6MW platform received the design assessment certificates from China General Certification Center.

Furthermore, the GW121/2500 high altitude WTGs also received the IECRE certificate from China General Certification Center. As a result, Goldwind is one of the three earliest WTGs manufacturers with the certificate since China General Certification Center became IECRE member. This not only serves as an example of how the assessment capability of domestic third party certification body gained international recognition, but also demonstrates the ability of Goldwind’s units in meeting new international standards.

In terms of innovative technology certification, the GW121/2500 Lidar Assisted Control technology obtained the design assessment certificate issued by DNV-GL. The control technology, which is recognized by third parties, effectively enhances the adaptability of WTGs to complex environment.

c)Intellectual property protection and standardization

Goldwind has attached importance to the development of core R&D capability, as evident by the steady growth of patent application at home and abroad, as well as the continuous optimisation of patent application structure. During the first half of 2017, Goldwind added 259 authorized patents in China, including 77 new authorised inventions. It also had 24 software copyrights newly registered, 23 new registered trademarks in China, and 4 new registered trademarks approved in overseas.

The Group has actively participated in the formulation of international, national and industrial standards. As at 30 June 2017, Goldwind has took part in the formulation of 135 standards in the PRC, including 71 national standards, 48 industrial standards, six regional standards and 10 association standards, of which 67 national and industrial standards were implemented. In the international arena, it joined the working groups of four international standards, including the IEC 61400-1 and IEC 6400-15 standards, in which it contributed the application experience of itself and the PRC by putting forward opinions and proposals. The first committee draft (1CD) of IEC/TS 62898-3-1 “Microgrids-Technical Requirements-Protection Requirements”, of which the Company was the leading drafter, was submitted to the Secretariat of IEC/TC 8 in June 2017 and the solicitation of opinions has commenced among member states.

3. Quality Management

The Group believes that product quality is the foundation of business growth. As improvement of product quality is integral to all aspects of the industry chain, it strives to establish an excellent industry chain in the wind power sector. During the Reporting Period, the quality management works aimed at both prevention and in-process control. The Group designed and promoted internal quality prevention courses for further optimisation of quality standards and system. In order to ensure product quality from the source, it encouraged suppliers in enhancing product quality management. The Group organised nine professional training sessions for over 200 participants from 86 suppliers, covering application of quality tools, qualification accreditation, position certification, lean management and other topics.

ii. Wind Power Services

Following over a decade of rapid growth of the wind power sector, the warranty of an increasing number of WTGs has expired and competition in the industry is no longer limited to product manufacturing. While market competition shifts from the front end of the industry chain to downstream industries, the after-sales service market is opening up room for development.

Adhering to the core principle of “prompt reaction”, Goldwind constantly satisfies the market demand for after-sale services. It invested in and constructed the smart service support platforms including the Goldwind Big Data Platform, Goldwind New Energy Meteorological Statistics Assets Management Platform, Goldwind Global Monitoring Center, Full Lifecycle Asset Management System and Big Data Early Warning System. Leveraging leading information technology, Group combined its operating statistics of WTGs in the past 20 years, the professional technical capability and resources to provide comprehensive smart operation and maintenance service.

During the Reporting Period, the Company developed business expansion plan for the “Energy Nest” system. The plan aims to optimise the control strategy of existing projects and carry out upgrade of intelligent wind farm control, hence offering modular solutions to wind farms for the future development of the energy internet in the PRC. Currently, the Company has contracts amounted to 1.44 GW. It will provide innovative technology for enhancing the economic benefits of China’s existing wind power projects and promoting green energy consumption.

57

corresponding period of 2016. Due to the intensifying market competition, the bidding price declined more than the cost improvement range, the gross profit margin of 2.5MW WTGs decreased to 23.34% from 27.75% in the corresponding period of 2016. Our 3.0MW WTGs are still in the market development stage. The adjustment of product market adaptability resulted in that the gross profit margin of 3.0MW WTGs decreased to 16.44% from 33.15%.

Other Income and Gains

This was mainly attributed to the increased impairment provision for trade receivables, loss from fair value change of derivative instrument and bank charges offset by decreased exchange earning.

Finance Costs

Finance costs of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2017 was RMB395.57 million, representing a 29.53% increase compared with RMB305.38 million for the corresponding period in 2016.

IV. OUTLOOK FOR THE SECOND HALF OF 2017

Following the adjustment of the overall wind power construction strategy and the technological advancement in the PRC, the wind power market extended from the Three-North region to mid-eastern and southern China with higher power consumption and no power curtailment. In the first half of 2017, mid-eastern and southern China contributed over 50% of China’s newly installed wind power capacity, surpassing the Three-North region for the first time. As planned by the NEA, the newly installed wind power capacity (including offshore wind power) in mid-eastern and southern China will exceed 47 million kW, accounting for 57% of the newly installed capacity in China during the “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan” period.

Wind resources are rich in offshore China. The vast sea area in the east coast of China which is 2 to 15 meters in depth has great potential for wind power development, especially the coast, tidal flats and offshore area in Jiangsu. Due to the decline in wind resources available for development on land, the construction of wind farms is gradually shifting from onshore to offshore. According to the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan on Wind Power Development (《風電發展“十三五”規劃》) published by the NEA, the cumulative installed wind power capacity shall exceed 210 million kW by the end of 2020. Among which, the installed capacity of offshore wind power shall be above 5 million kW and the annual power generation shall reach 420 billion kWh, accounting for approximately 6% of the domestic power generation in aggregate. The NDRC and the State Oceanic Administration of the PRC jointly issued the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan on National Marine Economic Development (《全國海洋經濟發展“十三五”規劃》), which proposed the site-specific and reasonable development of offshore wind power industry. It also encouraged the construction of offshore wind farm in distant water, adjustment of the grid connection policy for wind power, and optimisation of the technical standard systems and standards for marine use in the offshore wind power industry. In addition, it also planned to strengthen the R&D of 5MW, 6MW and above high power offshore wind power equipment, achieve breakthrough in key technology of offshore substantiation and submarine power transmission, and extend to auxiliary offshore wind power industries such as energy storage devices and smart grid.

The New Energy Outlook 2017 Report published by Bloomberg New Energy Finance predicted that wind power and solar power will take up 60% of the total investment in power generation technology from 2017 to 2040, hence wind power will become the most important new energy investment. Furthermore, the cost of offshore wind power technology will drop faster than the rapid decline in the cost of onshore wind power technology. It is expected that global wind power generation will steadily increase from 2017 and the installed wind power capacity in China will exceed 200GW in 2020. Looking ahead to 2030, there will be a new round of growth in the global and PRC wind power industry.

Potential Risk Factors

• (1) Wind curtailment

The wind curtailment still affected the growth of the industry during the Reporting Period and will continue to be the key restraint to wind power development in the near term, despite the significant improvement in the PRC during the first half of 2017.

(2) Political Risks

The development of the wind power industry is inextricably linked to the national policy. Due to the national tariff reduction policy which will become effective in 2018, the competition for market share and resources between wind power enterprises will intensify in 2017, which may create challenges to market expansion and resources reservation.

• (3) Declining demand from customers

As sales to major customers accounted for a high proportion of total annual sales of the Company, changes in the demand from major customers or their investment plan due to the macroeconomic environment or their development may affect the production and operation of the Company.

• (4) Economic environment and change in exchange rate

63

The uneven growth across major economies in the world, uncertainty in globalisation due to geopolitical factors, the potential rise of trade protectionism and fluctuation of Renminbi exchange rate may affect the profitability of the Company and the expansion of the international business.

In view of the above risks, the Company will strengthen its principal activities while penetrating the well-established sectors in the wind power value chain that offer more room for value enhancement. By providing comprehensive wind power solutions comprising wind power equipment manufacturing and smart energy services and clean power to customers, it will continue to consolidate and enhance its leading position in the global wind power industry. Given the opportunities and challenges ushered in by industry policy and market development, the Company will adopt the customer-oriented strategy, increase R&D investment, boost innovation capability, strive for technology upgrade and improve product functionality, so as to keep creating value for customers. In the meantime, it will closely monitor the change of exchange rate and interest rate and strengthen capital management to reduce exchange risk.
