Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners has been selected by the Taiwanese Bureau of Energy to supply the grid with 900MW of offshore wind energy.

On April 30, it was announced that CIP has been allocated 600MW for the projects Changfang and Xidao located 13-15km of the coast of Changhua County, as well as 300MW for Site 29 (also Changhua), which it will develop with partners China Steel Corporation and DGA.

The selection process has been competitive, evidenced by the large number of developers participating in the selection process, which resulted in more than 10GW of applications for the 3.5GW of available grid. Three main companies have been awarded significant capacity: CIP (900MW including 300MW with partners), WPD (1073MW), Ørsted (900MW).

"the offshore projects awarded grid in Taiwan represent a significant outcome for CIP in a new and fast-growing market for offshore wind,” said CIP Partner Michael Hannibal and continued: “CIP are very pleased with BOE allocating grid to our projects and recognizing our global leading expertise within offshore wind and our Taiwanese localization.”

“Taiwan has unique advantages to develop offshore wind, and CIP are delighted to take a significant role in making offshore wind a success and sustainable part of the future energy system in Taiwan. CIP and its Taiwanese partners have made significant commitments to establish a local supply chain as the industry is developing in South East Asia CIP will continue to focus on localization related to the three main areas; supply chain, finance and talent cultivation”, said Michael Hannibal.
