DNV GL has signed an agreement with Taiwanese stakeholders to collaborate on offshore wind testing and certification to drive the expansion and facilitate the development of offshore wind in Taiwan.
The regulations for certification will be headed by the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection since it has been designated by the highest authority in Taiwan. The participating stakeholders who signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) are CR Classification Society, Electronics Testing Center Taiwan, Metal Industries Research & Development Centre, Taiwan Electronic Research and Testing Center and Taiwan Institute of Economic Research. To support local and foreign companies realizing projects on site, DNV GL has recently established a local certification team in Taipei, headed by Per Haahr, Regional Manager Asia Pacific for Renewables Certification at DNV GL.
