Siemens Gamesa to supply turbines to 1 GW wind power project in Taiwan

It is the largest preferred supplier agreement for the company in Taiwan to date.

Canadian independent power producer Northland Power and Taiwan-based developer Yushan Energy Co, has selected Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy to supply SG 14-222 DD turbines for the whole 1,044 MW Hai Long offshore wind project located off the coast of Changhua County in Taiwan.

According to Siemens Gamesa, the exact number of machines remains to be determined. The SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbines are planned to be installed 50 km off the coast of Changhua County. Each turbine will have a capacity of 14 MW and feature a rotor diameter of 222 meters using 108-meter long Siemens Gamesa IntegralBlades.

The company is currently constructing a Nacelle Assembly Facility in Taichung, towards start production in Q3 FY2021. With the conditional approval of the Hai Long 2A Industrial Relevance Proposal, a factory expansion will start in 2022, subject to final investment decision by the project partners.

“This will more than double the plot area up to approx. 80,000 m2, as well as more than double the number of Siemens Gamesa employees working in the factory. The expansion will broaden the production scope with new production halls to be constructed on the extended plot,” Siemens Gamesa said.

The project is expected to be fully operational by 2025.
