TotalEnergies and Partners Inaugurate 640 MW Yunlin Wind Farm in Taiwan

TotalEnergies and its partners announced the successful inauguration of the 640 MW Yunlin offshore wind farm located about 15 km off the west coast of Taiwan, at water depths of up to 35 meters.

TotalEnergies holds a 29.46% stake in Yunneng Wind Power Co., Ltd., the joint venture responsible for the project. The other stakeholders include Skyborn Renewables with 31.98%, EGCO Group with 26.56%, and Sojitz with 12%. The development and construction of the Yunlin project were led by Skyborn with the support of the other partners. Following the Commercial Operations Date (COD), expected in June 2025, TotalEnergies will take the lead in technical operations management, whilst Skyborn Renewables will continue to lead other management services.

The project consists of 80 wind turbines, each with 8 MW capacity. The electricity generated is fed into the Taiwanese grid and contracted to Taiwan Power Company (TPC) through two 20-year Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) at an average rate of $165/MWh. The Yunlin offshore wind farm produces 2.4 TWh of renewable electricity per year, powering over 600,000 Taiwanese households and reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 1.2 million tons.
