Areas with great wind power potential such as Gansu are sometimes far away from established industrial and residential centers. Coal-fired plants have a constituency of miners and local governments which wind-power projects lack. This has led to power generated by wind remaining underused. Transmission capacity of the grid hasn''t kept up with the growth of China''s wind farms. In 2009, only 72% (8.94 GW) of China''s total wind power capacity was connected to the grid. In 2014, 96.37 GW of
