Danish offshore wind installation specialist Cadeler has opened a new office in Taipei as part of its efforts to expand operations and strengthen its presence across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.
The office, located in the Xinyi District of Taipei, will serve as a regional hub to support ongoing and future offshore wind projects in both established and emerging markets. These include Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, the Philippines, and Australia.
“Cadeler’s new Taipei office becomes the hub for expanding our regional footprint – supporting local teams, anchoring client relationships, and coordinating cross-border opportunities as we build momentum for the clean energy future across Asia-Pacific,” said Cadeler chief executive Mikkel Gleerup.
Cadeler has maintained a long-standing presence in Taiwan, having helped develop the country’s first commercial-scale offshore wind project, Formosa 1. Since its 2023 merger with Seajacks/Eneti, the company has strengthened its foundation in the region.
Currently, two Cadeler vessels are operating in Taiwanese waters. The Wind Maker is installing 14-megawatt turbines at Ørsted’s Greater Changhua 2b & 4 project, while the Wind Zaratan is under a long-term service agreement with turbine manufacturer Vestas.
The company also reported a robust project pipeline extending through the end of the decade. In 2027, Wind Maker is scheduled to install turbines at Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners’ Fengmiao 1 project. In 2028, Cadeler will install 14MW Siemens Gamesa turbines at the Formosa 4 offshore wind farm, developed by Synera Renewable Energy.
“The new Taipei office is more than a workspace – it reflects our confidence in the region’s potential across diverse markets,” said Tony Lu, APAC manager at Cadeler. “With two vessels already active in Taiwan and a strong pipeline ahead, the new Taipei office gives us the space and strength to meet growing demand.”
The Taipei office aligns with Cadeler’s European branding and design standards and is designed to accommodate twice the staff capacity, allowing room for future expansion. It is located adjacent to the newly opened Taipei Dome, a 40,000-capacity venue used for sports and international events.
