During a ceremony in Taipei,
TotalEnergies and its partners announced the successful inauguration of the Yunlin offshore wind farm in Taiwan, which has now reached its full operational capacity of 640 MW, delivering renewable electricity as planned.
A Key Milestone for TotalEnergies in Asia
TotalEnergies holds a 29.46% stake in Yunneng Wind Power Co., Ltd., the joint venture behind the project. The other stakeholders include Skyborn Renewables (31.98%), EGCO Group (26.56%), and Sojitz (12%).
The development and construction of the Yunlin project were led by Skyborn Renewables, with support from its partners. Following the expected Commercial Operations Date (COD) in June 2025, TotalEnergies will assume responsibility for technical operations management, while Skyborn Renewables will continue overseeing other management services.
"We are very pleased to inaugurate the Yunlin offshore wind farm, marking another step forward in our offshore wind expansion," said Olivier Jouny, Senior Vice President of Renewables at TotalEnergies. "This 640 MW project contributes to our 2025 targets of 35 GW gross renewable capacity and over 50 TWh of net electricity production, which will account for 10% of TotalEnergies’ total energy output. Taking on the role of technical operator at Yunlin will further strengthen our offshore wind expertise as we advance projects in Germany, Denmark, and the United Kingdom," he added.
In Asia, TotalEnergies’ renewable energy portfolio—spanning solar, wind, and battery storage—totals over 23 GW gross across various stages of development, construction, and operation. Of this capacity, 50% is either operational or under construction.
One of Taiwan’s Largest Offshore Wind Farms
Located approximately 15 kilometers off Taiwan’s west coast in waters up to 35 meters deep, the Yunlin offshore wind farm comprises 80 wind turbines, each with an 8 MW capacity. The generated electricity is integrated into Taiwan’s power grid and sold to Taiwan Power Company (TPC) under two 20-year Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) at an average rate of $165/MWh.
The wind farm generates 2.4 TWh of renewable electricity annually, supplying power to over 600,000 Taiwanese households and reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 1.2 million tons per year.
TotalEnergies and Electricity
As part of its commitment to achieving net zero by 2050, TotalEnergies is developing a world-class, cost-competitive energy portfolio that integrates renewables—including solar, onshore, and offshore wind—alongside flexible assets such as combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT) and storage solutions. This strategy aims to provide clean, reliable power to its customers.
By the end of 2024, TotalEnergies’ gross installed renewable electricity capacity reached 26 GW. The company plans to continue expanding its renewable energy footprint, targeting 35 GW by 2025 and exceeding 100 TWh of net electricity production by 2030.
TotalEnergies and Offshore Wind
TotalEnergies’ portfolio in offshore wind has a total capacity of 23 GW, with most farms bottom-fixed. These projects are located in the United Kingdom (Seagreen, Outer Dowsing, West of Orkney, Erebus), South Korea (Bada), Taiwan (Yunlin, Haiding 2), France (Eolmed), the United States (Attentive Energy and Carolina Long Bay), in the Netherlands (OranjeWind), in Germany (Nordsee Energies 1 & 2, Ostsee Energies, N-9.1 and N-9.2).
