1. Name of project
Greater Changhua 4 (Northwest) Offshore Windfarm.
2. Description of project
The project is an offshore wind development in the Taiwan Strait. The Project is expected to consist of between 54 to 74 wind turbine generators (WTGs), each with a capacity of 8 to 11 Megawatts (MW). There is a grid capacity of up to 598MW. The WTGs will be connected to one offshore substation (OSS) via 33 or 66 Kilovolt (kV) inter-array cable strings, and subsequently to the Changkong grid connection point through two export cables.
3. Location of project
Approximately 50km from the Western shore of Taiwan.
