BMT Asia Pacific (BMT), IT Power and Ramboll will work together to provide consulting services to Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), and devise a set of localised, best practice guidelines for the future development of offshore wind farms in Taiwan.
The Taiwan government is actively promoting wind energy with a particular focus on offshore development. The guidelines will cover design, construction, operation and maintenance aspects, replicating best practice from the UK and around the world whilst reflecting Taiwan’s policy, environmental conditions and industrial setting. Drawing on the related experiences of IT Power, Ramboll and BMT, the guidelines will also provide practical, real-world advice to developers including how to select the appropriate technology to suit Taiwan’s environmental conditions, building on existing guidelines, practices and standards, as applicable.
