SK oceanplant Co., a subsidiary of SK ecoplant Co., has won a $285.5 million contract to export offshore wind foundations, or jackets.

The company announced Tuesday that it has signed an agreement with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), one of the world‘s largest infrastructure investments, particularly in wind power, to supply jackets for an offshore wind project in Taiwan.

The Fengmiao Offshore Wind Project is designed to develop a 500-megawatt offshore wind farm 35 kilometers off the coast of Taichung in western Taiwan.

Construction is slated to begin in 2025 with the goal of launching operations in 2027.
