MHI Vestas has confirmed a purchase agreement with Swancor to source blade manufacturing components locally. The scope of the Swancor covers a significant percentage of the direct materials value of overall blade manufacturing (including carbon tow, carbon pultrusion, resin, and bonding glue).
This is the second purchase agreement signed by MHI Vestas related to blade production in Taiwan, following selection of Tien Li Offshore Wind Technology to manufacture blades in a new facility to be built near Taichung Harbour. Beyond recent progress on blades and blade materials, MHI Vestas has also signed contracts in Taiwan for switchgear, cables, tower production and castings.
