Taiwan Offshore Wind Industry Association forms offshore wind alliance

The Taiwan Offshore Wind Industry Association (TOWIA) has been founded by a group of companies involved in the offshore wind farm industry.

Ørsted, Northland Power, Copenhagen Infrastructure Wind Power Development Taiwan (CIP), WPD Taiwan Energy, Macquarie's Green Investment Group, Swancor, Yushan Energy, and JERA are among the association's founding members.

The association's key aim is to promote green energy discussions among government officials, private companies, and the general public, as well as to assist in the development of a long-term wind power supply chain in Taiwan by encouraging greater collaboration between industry and academia.

Taiwan aims to have over 15.5 GW of operational offshore wind power by 2035, with renewable energy accounting for 20% of total electricity generation by 2025.
