Danish wind turbine maker Vestas has, along with Zhong Neng Offshore Wind Farm, accomplished the primary domestically assembled offshore wind turbine rotor hub in Taiwan.
On the core of the offshore wind turbine rotor hub is the hub casting, manufactured just some kilometres away by Yeong Guan Vitality Expertise Group (YGG) at their Taichung facility – one more first for Taiwan, mentioned Vestas in a current social media put up.
In 2020, Vestas signed an settlement with Taiwan’s YGG to supply further parts for the manufacturing of V174 generators that are set to be put in in Taiwan. The settlement covers rotor hubs, hub plates, and nacelle base frames.
Two years later, Vestas, along with its companion Ten Li Offshore Wind Expertise, produced the primary V174-9.5 MW blade at its services in Taiwan.
The primary blade, which weighs 35 tonnes and measures 85 metres, consists of supplies produced in Taiwan and was manufactured within the 210,000 sq. metre manufacturing facility situated in Taichung, central Taiwan.
