Global experience, local expertise
Ørsted plays a key role in driving offshore wind development in Taiwan. Our large-scale offshore wind farms do more than mitigate climate change. They’re also making our domestic energy infrastructure stronger and more robust – and they’re growing the national economy.
Globally, we’re leaders in offshore wind with a 25 % market share..
We were the first and only renewable energy company to establish their APAC hub in Taiwan in 2016. From day one, we have been pioneering offshore wind throughout the entire wind farm lifecycle, building a comprehensive value chain and driving industry chances to provide economic benefits and long-term values for local communities.
Together with our joint venture partners, we delivered Taiwan’s first commercial-scale demonstration offshore wind farm – 128 MW Formosa 1 (Ørsted has 35% stake) in 2019.
In 2024, we delivered Greater Changhua 1 and 2a offshore wind farms, Taiwan’s first utility-scale far-shore wind farms and the largest of their kind in the Asia-Pacific, reaffirming Taiwan as the frontrunner in the region. With 111 turbines and a total installed capacity of 900 MW, Greater Changhua 1 and 2a produce enough renewable energy to power one million Taiwanese households a year.
We’re now building Greater Changhua 2b and 4 offshore wind farms, which will provide another 920 MW of clean energy to Taiwan.
With a strong local team of over 180 employees, we are focused on operating and constructing nearly 2 GW of offshore wind farms to provide stable, clean energy to our customers. We are reviewing our development pipeline in Taiwan and plan to develop new sites for future auctions to contribute significantly to Taiwan’s energy transition goal and the growing needs for clean energy by companies in Taiwan.
On a local level, our renewable energy solutions are having a long-term positive impact on local communities and suppliers as we pave the way for a secure and reliable future for domestic energy in Taiwan.
