He said the entire project was scheduled to be completed by the end of 2012, when it would boast a generating capacity of 200 megawatts.
The clean energy project is expected to cut dust emissions by 92,400 tonnes a year in Tianjin, based on the amount of coal consumed for that amount of power production.
Liu said the city government invested 1.4 billion yuan ($212 million) in building a smart grid last year, which allowed power from Tianjin Dashentang Wind Farm, the first of its kind in Tianjing, to be connected.
The city's budget for grid building this year was set at 1.9 billion yuan to allow for more solar and wind generated power, he said.
Problems with grid connection have left many new energy power generating facilities redundant across China.
