Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs raised its offshore wind capacity target to 18.3-19.9 GW by 2035 and up to 27.9 GW by 2039, an eightfold increase from the current 3.4 GW, as part of a strategy to reduce fossil fuel imports.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.
◆ The Wire takeaway
Taiwan just committed to buying eight times more offshore wind turbines, foundations, cables and installation services by 2039. If you manufacture or install any part of that stack, there's a concrete, government-backed procurement pipeline opening in a geopolitically critical region.
