Taiwan's Round 3.3 Offshore Wind Auction Offers Pushed Back to Implement Changes

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Taiwan's Round 3.3 offshore wind auction, originally expected by June 2025, has been pushed back as policymakers weigh significant market reforms.

The round is set to offer up to 3 gigawatts (GW) of opportunities and could reshape the industry with three major changes: scrapping local content requirements, raising capacity limits beyond the current 900-megawatt capacity, and introducing a floor price to stabilize revenues.

The reforms follow setbacks in earlier rounds, where only about 40% of awarded capacity advanced and some projects collapsed due to financing and policy uncertainty.

Officials and industry groups stress that stable policy, streamlined permitting, and export-ready local supply chains will be critical to keeping Taiwan competitive in the global renewables market.
