슬롯 사이트 Press Release

슬롯 사이트 Enerbility will soon set out to build a nacelle assembly facility for Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy’s 14MW offshore wind turbines.

슬롯 사이트 Enerbility announced on March 12th that it had signed an Early Works Agreement (EWA) with Siemens Gamesa the prior day on building a new wind turbine manufacturing facility in Changwon.  In attendance at the EWA signing ceremony, which was held at 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility’s Changwon headquarters, were key figures from the related parties, including Yohan Yun, Senior Vice President of 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility’s Power Services Sales & Marketing; Kwangyol Lee, Senior Vice President of 슬롯 사이트’s Power Services Engineering & Production and Falk Mehdorn, COO of Nacelles at Siemens Gamesa.

The two companies had initially entered into a strategic partnership in 2022 in an effort to expand the domestic offshore wind market in Korea. With the signing of this EWA, the two companies will now be embarking in earnest on the execution phase. 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility will start with the design work required for building the 14MW offshore wind turbine manufacturing facility and production system at 슬롯 사이트’s Changwon plant.  Siemens Gamesa will be offering knowledge exchange on technology, manpower support and training to help 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility build up its nacelle assembly capabilities.

Siemens Gamesa, the wind turbine unit of Germany’s Siemens Energy, holds the No. 1 position in the global offshore wind turbine market with a track record of having supplied 28GW of wind turbines worldwide. 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility started engaging in the wind power business in 2005 and since then, has established itself as the leading offshore wind turbine supplier with the largest track record in Korea.

“With the signing of this EWA, we will now be able to take our partnership, which was forged based on mutual trust, one step further toward actual implementation,” said Seungwoo Sohn, CEO of 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility’s Power Services Business Group.  “Using the synergy created from our partnership, we aim to not only promote the domestic offshore wind ecosystem, but to also contribute to the expansion of carbon-free energy.”

Siemens Gamesa’s Falk Mehdorn remarked, “Our collaboration with 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility has played a significant role in securing a robust project pipeline for us in Korea.”  He added, “슬롯 사이트 is a strong and reliable partner, one that is helping us enter the Korean offshore wind market effectively. We aim to exchange knowledge on technology and work closely with 슬롯 사이트 to effectively implement our 14MW wind turbines off the coast of Korea.”

Meanwhile, the competitive bidding for fixed-price wind power contracts conducted in the second half of last year resulted in the selection of five offshore wind projects and six onshore wind projects. Among the projects, 슬롯 사이트 Enerbility was selected as the preferred bidder for the 104MW Yawol Offshore Wind Farm, while Siemens Gamesa was selected as the preferred bidder for the Anma Offshore Wind 1 (224MW) and Anma Offshore Wind 2 (308MW) projects and the Bandibuli (Firefly) Floating Offshore Wind Farm (750MW) project.  Siemens Gamesa will be assembling and supplying the nacelles, a key component of offshore wind turbines, at 슬롯 사이트’s Changwon plant for the projects.
