As one of Taiwan's largest offshore wind farms, the 640 MW Yunlin OWF generates enough clean energy to power over 600,000 Taiwanese homes annually. With a capacity of 2,400 Gigawatt hours (GWh), and meeting 90% of Yunlin County's non-industrial electricity needs, the Yunlin OWF will also reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 1,200,000 tons per year. The development and construction was led by Skyborn, with the support of its partners. Following the commercial operations date (COD), which is envisaged for June 2025, TotalEnergies will take the lead of the technical operations management, whilst Skyborn will continue to lead all other management services.

"I'm proud to see the 640 MW Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm now generating at full capacity. This project is a testament to our commitment to creating lasting value for our partners and society and delivering on our promises. We promised to deliver it, and we've done just that. I'd like to extend a special thanks to the Taiwanese government for their unwavering support throughout this project," said Patrick Lammers, CEO of Skyborn.

"We are pleased with the completion of the Yunlin offshore wind farm, which is now producing at its planned capacity. The 640 MW project, realized together with our partners, will help Taiwan reach its 2025 target of 5.7 GW of offshore wind power. This achievement, which contributes to the growth of free cash flow from our electricity business, marks a new step towards TotalEnergies' goal of exceeding 100 TWh of net electricity production by 2030," said Olivier Jouny, Senior Vice President Renewables at TotalEnergies.

"We are delighted that the Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm has successfully commenced its commercial operations with a total capacity of 640 MW, as the first offshore wind project in our power portfolio. Thanks to the collaborative efforts of all relevant parties with efficient construction planning and project management capabilities. We especially thank the Taiwanese government for their continuous support in all aspects of the project. The achievement also fulfils EGCO Group's business strategy that addresses sustainable growth across all dimensions by balancing business opportunities, profitability, and our low-carbon organizational targets," said Dr. Jiraporn Sirikum, President of EGCO Group.

"We are honoured to see the Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm commence its operations, as our first offshore wind project. This achievement is in line with our strong commitment to create "value for society" for developing local economies and environmental conservation. We extend our deepest gratitude to our valued partners, senior lenders, EPC contractors and all stakeholders, which have been crucial in making this project a reality," said Takefumi Nishikawa, Executive Officer, COO of Energy Solutions & Healthcare Division at Sojitz.

The Yunlin OWF is located in the Taiwan Strait, between 8 and 17 km off the west coast of Taiwan, at water depths from 7 up to 35 m. The 82 km² project area comprises 80 WTGs, whose generated electricity is fed into the Taiwanese power grid via two onshore substations near the townships of Taixi and Sihu in Yunlin County. Electricity from the project is provided to Taiwan Power Company (TPC) under two 20-year power purchase agreements. The project is backed by a strong financial consortium established in 2019, including Taiwanese and international banks alongside export credit agencies.
