Siemens Gamesa has installed the first turbine at the over 1 GW Hai Long offshore wind project, located off the western coast of Taiwan. This first SG 14-222 DD turbine was installed at the Hai Long 2A wind park off Taiwan’s Changhua coast.
The Hai Long project, which is being developed by a joint venture between Northland Power, Mitsui and Gentari. comprises two offshore wind parks, the 518 MW Hai Long 2 and 504 MW Hai Long 3. Hai Long 2 is further split into two smaller wind parks, the 294 MW Hai Long 2A and the 224 MW Hai Long 2B. In total, the Hai Long project will feature 73 Siemens Gamesa turbines.
Earlier in April 2025, Siemens Gamesa had announced the installation of the first turbine at the 920 MW Greater Changhua 2b and 4 offshore wind parks, also located off the coast of Taiwan. The two plants are expected to complete offshore installation by the end of 2025 and to be fully connected to the grid in 2026.
Taiwan aims to reach 5.7 GW of offshore wind capacity by the end of 2025. The offshore wind target was extended in 2019 to 10 GW between 2026 and 2035 and again in 2021 to 15 GW by 2035. Offshore wind capacity amounted to 2.5 GW at the end of 2024, accounting for 4% of the country’s total installed capacity (64 GW).
