｜SK Oceanplant Provides Jacket Foundations for CIP Taiwan Fengmiao Offshore Wind Farm
SK oceanplant, which specializes in the production of offshore wind farm jacket foundations, has won a CIP contract worth US$285.5 million to provide jacket foundations for CIP Taiwan's Fengmiao Offshore Wind Farm.

SK oceanplant announced on the 4th that it has signed a contract with CIP to provide jacket foundations for Taiwan's Fengmiao Offshore Wind Project. The project, located about 35 kilometers from Taichung, Taiwan, has a capacity of 500 MW and is expected to start construction next year and operate in 2027.

The Taiwanese government is advancing the third phase of offshore wind power development, aiming to construct a total capacity of 15 GW of offshore wind farms in 5 phases from 2026 to 2035. According to SK Ocean Plant, it will participate in three offshore wind power projects developed by CIP in Taiwan.

｜China Commissions the World's Largest 5 GW Solar Project in Northwest Xinjiang
China has commissioned the world's largest massive 5 GW solar project, the facility locates in the north-west of the Xinjiang region, the huge project will cover 200,000 acres, and has been built in a desert area of Ürümqi, the regional capital, by the state-owned Ürümqi Zhonglvdian New Energy Co Ltd. The facility is expected to produce around 6,090GWh of electricity annually, enough to meet more than a quarter of the annual energy demand of Los Angeles.

With this project, China now holds the three largest solar projects in the world by capacity, with the Ningxia Tenggeli Desert Solar Farm and Golmud Wutumeiren projects already in operation, and each boasting a capacity of 3 GW.

｜Singapore Plans to Build 2 more Hydrogen-ready Natural Gas Power Plants by 2030
By 2030, the Republic will have two more natural gas power plants that are also hydrogen-compatible, to meet the nation's growing electricity needs and ensure energy security.

After the Energy Market Authority (EMA) announced that YTL PowerSeraya will build an $800 million power plant by 2027, on June 4, EMA invited the private sector to build, own, and operate two new power plants to be up and running in 2029 and 2030. Each plant is expected to have a capacity of at least 600MW, which can power about 864,000 four-room flats for a year. This means that by 2030, at least 9 such hydrogen-compatible power plants will be expected to produce more than 3.7 gigawatts (GW) of power in Singapore.
