GS Entec will supply 37 monopiles, or single-pile turbine foundations, for the 504-megawatt Taean offshore wind project off South Chungcheong Province. The contract was signed Wednesday at the Seoul headquarters of Taean Wind Power, with production scheduled to begin in July 2027 and deliveries to finish by the end of August 2028. The order follows an approximately 300 billion won ($221.5 million) plant expansion that increased annual production capacity to 150,000 tons from 40,000 tons. The contract value was not disclosed at the client's request. The project is being jointly developed by Singapore-based Vena Energy, Denmark's Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Korea Western Power. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2028, with completion targeted for 2030; the completed farm is expected to generate enough electricity to power about 300,000 households for one year. GS Entec entered the monopile business in 2022 through a strategic technology partnership with Netherlands-based Sif and supplied all 64 monopiles for the Yeonggwang Nakwol offshore wind project in 2023.
