Northland Power Development executive vice-president David Povall said: “This is an important milestone for the Hai Long 2 project and the localisation of the offshore wind industry in Taiwan.

“We have, from the beginning of the project, committed to meeting localisation requirements and we look forward to working with our partners Siemens Gamesa as they bring their international experience to empower the local supply chain.”
