About us
For over two decades, we have played a key role in the progressive development of public infrastructure in Taiwan having delivered major infrastructure projects across the country, including two of the country's largest transport infrastructure schemes - the 345km national High Speed Rail and the Kaohsiung mass rapid transit system.
Building on our wealth of local knowledge and experience across various sectors in Taiwan, we have adapted to meet the challenges our clients face. Today, we are firmly established in Taiwan's renewable energy sector and are primed to support our clients through every stage of their projects.
Renewable Energy
Taiwan is committed to becoming the leading green energy hub in Asia with the government making historic commitments to shift 20% of the country's power generation to renewables by 2025. The unprecedented growth in this industry is creating many exciting new opportunities for our clients and us.
We are the trusted local consultants to commercial developers, lenders and investors on renewable energy developments. Leveraging on our substantial global expertise and skills base, we are able to deliver robust and forward-looking technical advice to our international and local clients. Our involvement in landmark renewable energy projects has been recognised through local and international awards. Our team, in partnership with Cathay United Bank (CUB), won 'Best green project financing' at the 9th Taiwan Banking and Finance Best Practice Awards.
Our local team consists of multilingual project managers and registered professional engineers in electrical, mechanical, civil & structural, including specialists in offshore wind.
Solar
In Taiwan, we have an unrivalled understanding across the entire value chain of a solar project. We have a proven track record in providing Owner's Engineer and Technical Advisory services for more than 1GW of solar PV projects in Taiwan, including our engagement as Lender's Technical Advisor for the largest floating solar plant in the world (181MW) which we also helped reach financial close in 2020.
Our familiarity with the local regulatory framework, design codes, permit requirements, local contractors and well-establish business relationships with key players in the Taiwanese market enables us to quickly identify relevant risk issues and provide invaluable advice to our clients. In addition, we are able to draw experience from over 18GW of solar projects in Asia-Pacific and a wide resource pool of specialists in solar energy yield assessments, solar technology, financial modelling, contracts, procurement and construction.
Wind
We have been involved in offshore wind since the pioneering stage of the industry in Taiwan, having supported the Formosa 1 Phase 1 demonstration project as Lenders’ advisor for technical and environmental and social aspects. We have since supported developers, investors and lenders on most of the offshore wind farms being developed as part of Round 2 in addition to future projects, with a track record of over 4GW for offshore wind in Taiwan.
We are appointed by our clients to provide a wide range of services including feasibility studies, support with site investigations, design reviews, project planning and scheduling, contract reviews, energy yield assessments, technical due diligence and environmental & social assessments, as well as support on various aspects during construction.
