The UK government said on Wednesday that Chinese turbine maker Ming Yang’s products pose a national security risk and it could not support their use in UK offshore wind projects.
英国政府周三表示，中国风力发电机制造商明阳智能(Ming Yang)的产品对英国构成国家安全风险，无法支持将该公司产品用在英国海上风电项目中。
Ming Yang set out plans in October to invest up to £1.5bn in a Scottish factory to produce turbine blades and other parts for the UK, Europe and other markets.
明阳在去年10月份公布了计划，拟投资最多15亿英镑在苏格兰兴建一家工厂，生产风机叶片和其他零部件，供应英国、欧洲及其他市场。
But the government’s decision to reject Ming Yang’s products for use in UK offshore projects is expected to thwart the company’s proposals for the Scottish plant, which might have been located at Ardersier port in the Highlands.
但英国政府不允许在英国海上项目中使用明阳产品的决定，预计将对该公司在苏格兰建厂的提议构成阻碍，该工厂原本可能设在苏格兰高地的阿德希尔港(Ardersier port)。
