1 GW
Technical Advisory for Hai Long
Project Overview
Located approximately 45-70 km off the West coast of Changhua County in Taiwan, the Hai Long offshore wind farm is set to reach a combined capacity of just over 1GW, making it a significant contributor to Taiwan’s energy transition goals.
This large-scale project, sponsored by Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and Northland Power Inc., aims to complete construction by 2026 and operate for over 25 years.
The project has secured NTD 117 billion (3,3 billion EUR) in debt provision from lenders and Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) through long-term project financing – a pioneering achievement for Taiwan’s offshore wind sector.
