en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, the equipment used for the Soc Trang 7-2 offshore wind power project in Vietnam was delivered and officially handed over to the project owner, Xuan Cau Holdings, a renowned Vietnamese enterprise. Goldwind provided 19 GW155-4.7MW turbines for this project, with a total capacity of 90MW. This project marks another milestone in the green industry sector since Goldwind and Xuan Cau established cooperation in 2024.
Offshore Wind Power Scaling Up
Vietnam is on the cusp of an offshore wind power leap. In April 2025, Vietnam's revised Eighth Power Development Plan (PDP8) significantly raised the 2035 offshore wind target from 6GW to approximately 17GW, accompanied by mechanisms such as renewable energy development and Direct Power Purchase Agreements (DPPAs). Henan Province has accumulated experience in patch-based development and is conducting general assessments. With the dual support of policy and the industrial chain, Vietnam's offshore wind power industry is poised for a period of large-scale expansion.
Localized Cooperation Driving the Surge
The implementation of the Soc Trang 7-2 project is another example of the rising wave of offshore wind power scaling in Vietnam. Once the full capacity of this project is connected to the grid, it is expected to generate nearly 270 million kWh of electricity annually, significantly reducing emissions by over 220,000 tons per year. Additionally, Goldwind has actively participated in the development of the local industrial chain. Currently, 100% of consumables and 90% of tools for the project are sourced locally. Goldwind has accumulated years of experience in Vietnam's offshore wind power sector. In 2021, the company completed its first offshore wind project, Tra Vinh 1-2, with installed capacity. To date, six offshore wind projects have been connected to the grid and are operational. Among them, the Tra Vinh 1-4 project, signed in 2025, achieved "contracting and pre-commissioning within the same year," with less than 12 months from contracting to formal commercial operation. The Soc Trang 7-2 project, now delivered, will become Goldwind's seventh offshore wind project in Vietnam.
The implementation of this project is a result of Goldwind's collaboration with industrial chain partners to further understand the Vietnamese market and meet customer needs. In the future, Goldwind will continue to build deep mutual trust across the entire industrial chain, laying a solid foundation for the development of Vietnam's green industry.
