Day 2 of Wind Energy Asia was absolutely lit, with many special guests choosing this day to make their appearance.
š¤ The Bureau of Energy's Director Chen on the latest in and outs of Round 3. Definitely a few details I haven't seen before that made me š
If you work in Taiwanās offshore wind development then you must know your bureaucrats. There are not that many of them who are truly key. Dr. Chen Chung-Hsieh, Director of the Energy Technology Division at the Bureau of Energy is one of them. He is basically the BoE point man on all things offshore wind. To be honest, he is terribly overworked to the point where I sometimes feel bad about calling him upā¦but there is no one else authorized to speak on our business. Luckily today at Wind Energy Asia he seems quite relaxed.
I remember at last yearās WEA developers have consistently lobbied for an FiT supported floating project demonstration from the government. Back then it was a resounding no. But this year Director Chen have become quite bullish on floating and said that the bureau is investigating the feasibility of such a project.
š¦ Alex Robertson u packs Vestas' new modular approach to nacelle manufacturing, keeping volumes high and transportation costs low.
The new modular nacelle has larger center which can have two smaller shipping-container sized āsidecarā units attached to it, one on either side. The primary advantage is this: Vestas can now utilize the same nacelle assembly for both onshore and offshore turbines. Despite the fact that offshore wind gets all the attention, volume-wise, it is still dwarfed by onshore wind in terms of capacity installed per year. By consolidating their onshore and offshore nacelles, Vestas gets to increase volume and price down, a compelling imperative as the supply chain becomes more perilous from a number of perspectives. The onshore units will only have one āsidecarā unit for the electrical components, unlike the offshore, which will have two. This leaves one slot open for another āsidecarā that could be a big battery or even equipment for Power-to-X. Itās an intriguing prospect! After his talk Alex and I caught up at the Unredacted booth:
I got a sneak peek of a long-delayed but very welcome sight from one of Vestasā local partners in Taichung. I will say no more right here.
šæLouise Damgaard Nielsen on how oil major TotalEnergies is going green
French energy major TotalEnergie is relatively new to Taiwanās offshore wind development, but head of offshore wind Taiwan Louise Damgaard makes the point that TotaleEnergie is not new to Taiwan and indeed have been building an impressive offshore wind portfolio worldwide.
š¢Ben Darrington on the bright future of local marine contractors despite challenges.
šāāļøYours truly on why "export discipline" is something we should concentrate on when it comes to localization.
Watch out for an article on localization coming through on Unredacted based on my talk.
And tune in for Day 3 when I will go to do a site tour of the Marine Technology Industrial Innovation Zone!

Hi! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with
hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform.
I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a
good platform.

tips?
