SFE Installs First Jacket at 300MW Offshore Wind Farm

Wedoany.com Report-Mar 24, Shinfox Far East Energy has installed the first jacket foundation for a 300MW offshore wind farm in Taiwan.

The Taipower Offshore Wind Farm Phase 2 (TPC-II) project is being built off the coast of Changhua County, Taiwan.

The jacket, which is taller than a 20-storey building and heavier than 10 Boeing 747s, is now standing on the seabed of the wind farm.

Shinfox said the jackets will provide a solid support for the wind turbines, ensuring stable, clean energy generation.

They are being installed by the crane vessel SFE Hercules.

A Shinfox spokesperson said: “From design and manufacturing to transportation and installation, our dedicated team and partners worked hand in hand – riding on Hercules, we overcame challenges along the way. A huge thanks to everyone involved!

“Now, we’re moving full speed ahead with wind farm construction, driving Taiwan and the world toward a more sustainable future.”
