- 104MW offshore wind farm to be built… Entire process from construction to maintenance to be handled by Doosan
On December 31st, Doosan Enerbility announced that it had signed an EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) contract with Yawol Offshore Wind Farm Co., Ltd. for construction of the 104MW Yeonggwang Yawol Offshore Wind Farm.
The Yeonggwang Yawol Offshore Wind Farm project involves deploying thirteen units of Doosan Enerbility’s 8MW offshore wind turbine (DS205-8MW) off the shores of Nakwol-myeon, Yeonggwang-gun of South Korea’s South Jeolla Province. For this contract which is valued to be KRW 575 billion, Doosan Enerbility will not only be supplying its independently developed 8MW offshore wind turbines, but it will also be performing the EPC services required for the overall wind farm construction.
This is the first supply contract to be secured by Doosan Enerbility for its 8MW offshore wind turbine. The 8MW offshore wind turbine, developed by Doosan using homegrown technology and UL-certified in 2022, holds significance as having been specially designed to suit the Korean environment which has a lower wind speed compared to European countries.
Doosan Enerbility’s business groups will each be taking on different roles for the project. The Power Services Business Group will be responsible for the supply of the wind turbines, while the Plant EPC Business Group will be handling the materials supply, installation and construction work. Once the wind farm is built, Doosan will also be ensuring the continuous stable operation of the wind farm by providing maintenance services in line with the long-term service agreement (LTSA). The Yeonggwang Yawol Offshore Wind Farm is targeted to be built by March 2029.
“This project holds huge significance as it marks the first time we are engaged to supply our 8MW offshore wind turbines to a client, and we will also be handling the entire EPC process for this large-scale offshore wind farm,” said Hyeonho Lee, CEO of Doosan Enerbility’s EPC Business Group. He added, “We plan to harness our proven technological capabilities to contribute to the growth of Korea’s offshore wind ecosystem.”
