FINLAND  Konecranes has won a contract to supply four electrical overhead cranes to Siemens Gamesa's offshore nacelle plant in Taichung, Taiwan.

The cranes will support the entire material handling of the site’s broadened production scope, with lifting capacities of up to 400 tons.

The order was booked in first-quarter 2023, and installation is planned to take place in first-quarter 2024.

The cranes will be at the center of a continuous production flow at Taichung, lifting various turbine parts to and from production lines for nacelles. Siemens Gamesa is expanding production to deliver locally made nacelles for the 1,044-MW Hai Long offshore wind power projects, future projects from Taiwan’s Round 3 offshore wind power auctions and other Asia-Pacific projects.
