RWE and Asia Cement Corporation (ACC) have announced their intention to expand their existing strategic partnership to jointly develop new offshore wind projects off the west coast of Taiwan - in the waters of Hsinchu, Taichung and Changhua. Some of the sites are in water depths that are suitable for floating offshore wind.

RWE, which opened its office in Taiwan in 2018, and ACC are already collaborating on the development of the Chu Feng offshore wind project, that has a planned installed capacity of up to 448 MW.

Jens Orfelt, RWE Renewables APAC President for Offshore Wind, explained: “RWE is strongly committed to contributing towards Taiwan’s renewable energy targets. Thanks to our pioneering work in floating wind, combined with a 20 years’ track record in delivering offshore wind projects - safely, on-time and on budget - RWE is very well placed to supply green electricity from this sustainable energy source. Together with our partner ACC we will be investigating several new offshore development projects, which will further strengthen our renewables pipeline in the Asia-Pacific region and lay the foundation for long-term investments in Taiwan.”

Peter Hsu, Vice-Chairman of Far Eastern Group, said: “ACC’s collaboration with RWE is an excellent example of ‘the best of both worlds’ - local expertise and world leading international offshore wind farm experience coming together to deliver substantial, sustainable energy to the people of Taiwan and extensive generation of green jobs as a direct consequence. This fits with ACC’s plan to be involved with renewable projects and change our energy profile towards green sources.”
