German utility EnBW is joining a series of other European companies in expanding into the Taiwanese offshore wind sector by buying 37.5% in three offshore wind projects off Changhua region that have a combined capacity of about 2GW.

EnBW will develop the projects together with Australian investor Macquarie Capital and Taiwanese project developer Swancor Renewable. The acquisition is subject to the approval of the cartel authority in charge, the utility says.
