With any engineering project, they based their design by making assumption eg Fukushima nuclear power plant they assume that the tidal wave never exceed 7m turn out the Tsunami hit the tidalwave is 9 or more meter. The sea wall height is only 7m and the backup battery and motor control room is located in the basement and not water sealed they depend solely on the wall. Once the wall is breached nothing that prevent from being flooded
Oops wrong assumption.Yes it is cause for concern specially in the Typhoon prone sea like SCS
But judging from the sketch seem the plant is in the form of ship that can be moved before Typhoon hit
These days with advance of supercomputer, weather forecast is getting more accurate and long range

South China Sea island begins to supply fresh vegetables
A vegetable production base on the Yongle Islands has begun to provide fresh vegetables to residents of the islands in South China Sea, ending the historical reliance on produce brought in by ships.
The Yongle Islands consist of 13 islands, which are located 40 nautical miles southwest of Yongxing Island, the seat of Sansha. In 2016, the Sansha military garrison proposed building a vegetable production base on the islands. Thanks to the joint efforts of military and civilian leaders, a greenhouse covering 567 square meters was built on Jinqing Island, the administrative center of the Yongle Islands.
The greenhouse was built with materials that resist wind, sun and erosion. Solar panels were installed on top of the greenhouse to absorb excessive heat inside the structure. In addition, an intelligent system was installed to maintain the proper temperature.
At present, workers are growing tomatoes, amaranth and water spinach in the greenhouse. More vegetables will be planted in the future, with an eventual weekly yield of 200 kilograms anticipated.

Doubtful 450 pounds of fresh vegetables per week would end the need for supply by ships. Nevertheless, every little bit helps.South China Sea island begins to supply fresh vegetables

let me see
if so, I would need to change the view from Feb 6, 2017
so only now it's aligned to North?

Do they really need a tanker to patrol the SCS?

No, but it's good training opportunity.
