Google Turns To Offshore Wind, Solar, Geothermal In Taiwan

Google announced its first offshore wind power purchase agreement (PPA) in Taiwan. Google will purchase renewable energy from the Fengmiao I offshore wind project, developed by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners. As the first project from Taiwan’s Round 3.1 auction to achieve financial close, Google said that the project is an important catalyst for the local offshore wind sector. Once operational in 2027, the project will provide reliable power to support Google’s data center, cloud region, and offices in Taiwan.

The milestone builds on Google’s portfolio of energy technologies in Taiwan, including solar and geothermal.

In July 2024, Google announced a partnership with BlackRock’s Climate Infrastructure business that supported the development of a 1 GW pipeline for new solar capacity in Taiwan as part of Google’s goal to reach net-zero emissions across all of its operations and value chain by 2030, supported by the goal to run on 24/7 carbon-free electricity on every grid where it operates.

On April 15, 2025, Google announced its first-ever corporate agreement for geothermal energy in Taiwan. The initial projects — developed by global geothermal developer Baseload Capital — will add 10 megawatts MW of “always on” power to the grid and help catalyze Taiwan’s geothermal market. Google said that these geothermal power purchase agreements reflect the company’s commitment to advance a suite of energy solutions to support its local data center and operations with clean electricity, while opening up pathways to scale geothermal development across the Asia-Pacific region and globally.
