The European Commission has initiated an in-depth investigation under the Foreign Subsidies Regulation (FSR) to assess whether Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd. (Goldwind) received foreign subsidies distorting the EU’s internal market. Goldwind, based in the People’s Republic of China, operates in wind turbine manufacturing, R&D, sales, and servicing within the EU through entities like Vensys. The Commission’s preliminary concerns suggest potential grants, tax benefits, or preferential loans may have improved Goldwind’s competitiveness, harming EU market fairness. The FSR, effective since July 2023, allows the Commission to investigate such distortions. The investigation does not prejudge outcomes and will evaluate if subsidies exist. If confirmed, the Commission may require commitments, impose measures, or issue a no objection decision. Case details are available in the public register under FS.100143.
