United Renewable Energy (URE) has actually authorized a memorandum of comprehending to supply project developer Ye Heng Power with 120 MW of PV components for a solar array in Taiwan's Changhua Coastal Industrial Park.

Hsinchu-based URE stated that it will certainly begin providing the glass-glass bifacial components in the 2nd fifty percent of this year. It asserts that the 180 MW solar project that Ye Heng Power is developing will certainly be the biggest overseas solar plant in Taiwan upon conclusion.

" Our 2 business will certainly remain to function carefully with each other to develop planetary system projects," claimed Sam Hong, the chairman of URE." [We] are completely devoted to sustain Taiwan to accomplish 20 GW of collective solar energy installments by 2025."

Ye Heng Power-- a project business had by Partners Group, a Switzerland-based possession administration company-- will certainly mount the photovoltaic panels at a website in Lunwei area, in the Changhua Coastal Industrial Park, on the west coastline of Taiwan. The solar project will certainly be improved recovered land in the industrial park, which URE claims will certainly be the most significant "eco-friendly power area" on the island once it has actually been finished.

Ye Heng Power currently has 200 MW of solar capability in its profile, with a mix of functional projects as well as selections that are still incomplete. It ultimately prepares to set up greater than 800 MW of PV capability in Taiwan.

URE asserts that its complete module orders have actually practically gotten to 500 MW, as designers on the island are beginning to construct a variety of massive PV projects. In December, the business exposed strategies to develop a 193 MW solar project near the city of Tainan. The installment will certainly be just one of the biggest ground-mounted PV selections on the island upon conclusion.

Nonetheless, designers of huge PV projects in Taiwan still need to emulate a series of challenges, mostly because of resistance from the federal government, various other commercial gamers, and also the farming field. Similar to in Japan and also South Korea, land scarcities are likewise a large problem for solar release in Taiwan.
