On 13 March, an MoU boosting Taiwan-UK cooperation on developing local offshore wind power capabilities was concluded by state-owned Taiwan International Port Corporation Ltd. (TIPC) and the British Office Taipei (BOT). Signed by TIPC Port of Taichung President Chung Ying-feng and BOT Representative Catherine Nettleton on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Wind Energy Expo in Kaohsiung City, the pact paves the way for closer Taiwan-UK cooperation and exchanges in key fields like policy, strategy and technology.
In his remarks, Chung said the agreement is a blue-ribbon opportunity to learn from Great Britain’s extensive experience in offshore wind farms. This sharing of know-how stands to broaden TIPC’s green energy horizons and strengthen its organisational capabilities, he added. Nettleton said the UK looks forward to sharing related experiences with TIPC and other partners in Taiwan.
