Northland Power has announced the signing of a long-term Corporate Power Purchase Agreement ('CPPA') with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company ('TSMC') for additional power from its Hai Long offshore wind project in Taiwan.
The Hai Long Project is being constructed by Northland (30.6%) jointly with Mitsui & Co. (40%) and Gentari International Renewables Pte. Ltd (29.4%). The project is located approximately 45 – 70 kilometers off the Changhua coast in the Taiwan Strait and consists of three offshore wind sites, the 294-megawatt (MW) Hai Long 2A, the 224 MW Hai Long 2B, and the 504 MW Hai Long 3 with a combined gross capacity of 1,022 MW.
The new 30-year agreement builds on the existing long-term partnership with TSMC, established in 2022, which already covers Hai Long 2B and Hai Long 3. Subject to completion of necessary administrative procedures later in 2026, Hai Long 2A will switch to the new CPPA, and TSMC will offtake 100% of the project’s generating capacity.
This agreement strengthens the Project’s economics and extends Hai Long’s revenue period, supporting Northland’s focus on value enhancement.
'This agreement with TSMC reinforces the strategic importance of Hai Long. Once the switch is complete it will enhance the project’s long-term economic fundamentals and contribute directly to value creation for Northland and its shareholders,' said Christine Healy, President & CEO of Northland Power.
TSMC is a Taiwan-based multinational semiconductor manufacturer and a global leader in advanced semiconductor fabrication. TSMC is listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.
