Offshore Wind: TotalEnergies and Partners Inaugurate 640 MW Yunlin Wind Farm
in Taiwan


 * The Yunlin offshore wind farm is now fully operational

 * It will power 600,000 homes in Taiwan and save 1.2 million tons of CO(2
)annually

 * TotalEnergies will serve as the wind farm’s technical operator

 

During a ceremony held in Taipei, TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE)
(NYSE:TTE) and its partners announced the successful inauguration of the
Yunlin offshore wind farm in Taiwan, which is now fully operational and
generating renewable electricity at its planned capacity of 640 MW.

A new milestone for TotalEnergies in Asia

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.

"We are very pleased to be inaugurating the Yunlin offshore wind farm, as we
take a new step forward in our offshore wind development”, said Olivier
Jouny, Senior Vice President Renewables at TotalEnergies. “This 640 MW
project will help us achieve our 2025 targets for 35 GW of gross renewable
capacity and over 50 TWh of net electricity production, amounting to 10% of
TotalEnergies’ energy output. Our role as technical operator on Yunlin will
allow us to strengthen our offshore wind competencies as we look ahead to our
future projects in Germany, Denmark, and the United Kingdom", he added.

In Asia, TotalEnergies owns a renewable energy portfolio (solar, wind,
batteries) of over 23 GW gross, across all stages, from development to
construction and operation. Of this capacity, 50% is already operational or
under construction.

One of the largest offshore wind farms in Taiwan

The Yunlin offshore wind farm is located about 15 kilometers off the west
coast of Taiwan, at water depths of up to 35 meters. 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.
