MHI Vestas has finalised a purchase agreement in Taiwan with Hitachi ABB Power Grids, in collaboration with Shihlin Electric & Engineering Corporation (SEEC), to secure transformer technology, which converts electricity to a higher voltage (66 kV) for long range transmission to shore.
Hitachi ABB Power Grids will supply transformers with key components from the Shihlin Electric & Engineering Corporation (SEEC) facility in Hsinchu County, Taiwan. The transformers will be used in MHI Vestas’ Changfang Phase 2, Xidao and Zhong Neng projects.
