BEIJING, Aug. 18 (Xinhua)-- China's first 1.5 megawatt (1, 500 kW) wind-power generator with completely independent intellectual property rights has rolled off the assembly line in the southern Guangdong province.

The price was at least 20 percent lower than similar imported products or those manufactured by joint ventures, said the Guangdong Mingyang Wind Power Technology Co., Ltd.

The generator was designed for China's climate and is resistant to typhoons, sand storms and extremely low temperatures.

    China's wind power resource exceeds one billion
kilowatts, according to official estimates.
