The Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm Project in Taiwan Enters Full Operation －Contributing to the Stable Supply of Regional Power and Decarbonization－

Sojitz Corporation (“Sojitz”) has successfully completed installation of 80 wind turbine generators at Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm (“Yunlin OWF”), and full-scale commercial operations started on January 30, 2025.

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), the Yunlin OWF meets 90% of Yunlin County's non-industrial electricity needs and will also reduce CO₂ emissions by approximately 1,200,000 tons per year.

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, and the 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 and developed by Yunneng Wind Power Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Sojitz, Skyborn Renewables, TotalEnergies, and Electricity Generating Public Company.

Sojitz has positioned essential infrastructure as a strategic focus area under its Medium-term Management Plan 2026. Moving forward, Sojitz will continue to expand its renewable energy and energy conservation businesses in order to contribute to the stable supply of regional power and decarbonization.
