Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners bags 3 Offshore Wind sites in Taiwan
Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) bags 3 offshore under development wind sites of capacity 1,500MW located off the Changhua coast in the Taiwan. The three projects have been developed up to now by Fuhai Wind Farm Corporation.
The Government in Taiwan has set a target of 3,000 MW of offshore wind to be constructed by 2025 and decided that nuclear power will be phased out by 2025.
As part of the acquisition of the projects, CIP has entered into a MOU with the local company CSBC Corporation Taiwan regarding supply and installation services.
Further development of the sites will be undertaken by CIP in collaboration with local partner Taiwan Generations Corporation (TGC). The three projects are in the process of applying for the required environmental permits and are still subject to a final investment decision.
