Anemoi has officially opened its new Rotor Sail production facility in China. The facility significantly enhances Anemoi’s manufacturing capabilities.
Strategically located on the banks of the Yangtze River, Anemoi’s facility is located in Jingjiang City, Jiangsu Province, within Daming Heavy Industry’s manufacturing base. The facility provides direct access to port infrastructure, enabling seamless logistics for import, export, and delivery. With barge transport available on-site, Rotor Sails can be transported efficiently and installed directly at nearby major shipyards, streamlining operations and minimising environmental impact.
‘This is more than just a new site,’ says Clare Urmston, CEO of Anemoi. ‘It’s a fully integrated, end-to-end production hub where every stage, from steel fabrication and precision assembly to rigorous testing and quality assurance, is handled under one roof. That means faster turnaround, uncompromised quality, and complete oversight by our expert team, on site, from start to finish.’

Chinese entity
Anemoi has been working in China since its pilot installation in 2018, and subsequently established its Chinese entity, Anemoi Marine Technologies (Changzhou) Co., Ltd., in 2021. The company has built strong strategic partnerships over time.
For example, Anemoi has maintained close cooperation and formed a strategic partnership with CRRC Qishuyan Institute Co., Ltd., a first-tier subsidiary of CRRC, the world’s largest rail transit equipment manufacturer. Together, they have established the new facility, which serves as an advanced manufacturing platform, integrating both production and verification capabilities.
Fang Jun, Vice General Manager of CRRC Changzhou Tech-Mark Industrial: ‘We are proud to support this milestone project, which reflects the power of international cooperation. By combining British innovation in wind propulsion with China’s advanced manufacturing expertise, we are delivering impactful solutions on a global scale.’
