Ørsted signs local subsidiary Doosan Vina for Vietnamese offshore wind projects

With the signing of this MoU, Doosan Vina will be supplying the monopile foundations for Ørsted’s global offshore wind power projects that are currently underway in regions, such as Southeast Asia, the Asia Pacific region and Europe.

“Doosan Vina, which was founded in 2007, has gained recognition over the years for its expertise in manufacturing large structures by successfully supplying the main equipment of power plants and chemical plants as well as port cranes, to clients in over 30 countries,” said Hyotae Kim, CEO of Doosan Vina. He added, “Through this partnership with Ørsted, we plan to expand our foothold in not only the Vietnamese offshore wind power market, which is forecast to grow to 7GW by 2030, but a wider global wind power market.”

Doosan Enerbility, which started the offshore wind power business in 2005, currently owns the 3.3MW and 5.5MW wind turbine models, while a 8MW model is currently undergoing the commissioning process to meet the scheduled commercial launch date at the end of this year.
