Taiwan’s Formosa 2 offshore wind project has passed two construction milestones, completing the installation of 12 turbines and successfully transmitting power to the national grid.
The installation of the jacket foundations and subsea inter-array cables began in April and May respectively, and the turbine installation commenced in the beginning of June. The project has now completed more than half of the underwater foundation installations and more than a quarter of the turbines has been installed. The project, which will have an installed capacity of 376MW on completion, is being developed by JERA, Macquarie’s Green Investment Group (GIG) and Swancor Renewable Energy (SRE). GIG is supported by its portfolio company, Corio Generation.
