Improve communication efficiency and speed up offshore wind farm projects.
Jointly built by Chunghwa Telecom and Ericsson, the enterprise private network of the first phase of offshore wind farms in the southeast and southwest of Changhua was officially announced recently, providing a good quality of maritime communication for the 800 engineering teams of Woxu Energy. Improve communication efficiency and speed up offshore wind farm projects. This project is the first mobile enterprise private network for offshore wind power in Asia, marking a new milestone for the application of enterprise private network in the field of renewable energy.
Ensuring Communication Quality Action Enterprise Private Network is the Key Infrastructure for Offshore Wind Farms
As the first stage offshore wind farms in the southeast and southwest of Greater Changhua are located 35 to 60 kilometres offshore, which is beyond the coverage of the mobile network signal on the island, Chunghwa Telecom and Ericsson have joined hands to assist Woxu Energy in building enterprise-specific wind farms with 900MHz and 1800MHz frequency bands. The mobile broadband network creates a high-quality communication environment for offshore engineering teams and can also enjoy a smooth and seamless communication experience in the vast open sea. It is an indispensable and important infrastructure for wind farm construction and future operation and maintenance.
In Taiwan, increasing the proportion of renewable energy power generation to 20 per cent by 2025 is an important goal of energy transformation, and offshore wind power is one of the key development projects. The first stage offshore wind farms in the southeast and southwest of the Great Changhua Changhua are in the outer sea of Changhua. It is the first large-scale far-shore wind farm located outside the waterway in Taiwan. The total installation capacity is 900MW. It is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2022. Provide clean energy to up to one million Taiwanese households, helping Taiwan achieve its renewable energy generation goals.
Woxu, Chunghwa Telecom and Ericsson join forces to overcome the epidemic and launch a private enterprise network
Wang Xinjie, general manager of Woxu Energy Taiwan, said: “The epidemic has brought a major impact on the global industry. Woxu Energy has actively overcome various challenges and continued to promote the construction of wind farms and has cooperated with Chunghwa Telecom and Ericsson. Launched Asia’s first private network service for offshore wind farms. The first phase of the offshore wind farms in the southeast and southwest of Greater Changhua is not only vast, its area is equivalent to 2.6 Changhua City, good and stable communication quality is to ensure a safe working environment Crucially, the launch of the mobile enterprise private network will overcome the challenges of maritime communication and ensure that the Woxu team can have a stable, high-speed and high-quality mobile broadband network in the wind farm, improving work safety and efficiency.”
Jian Zhicheng, General Manager of Chunghwa Telecom Network Technology Branch, said: “Enterprise private network is the new blue ocean of mobile communication technology. According to the needs of customers, a dedicated mobile network that operates independently in the enterprise field is tailored to ensure good communication. Quality and data security and can also enjoy customized network deployment flexibility. The cooperation with Woxu Energy has opened a new chapter for Chunghwa Telecom’s mobile enterprise private network. We are very happy to have a stable and fast mobile broadband network. Road supports the development of renewable energy in Taiwan and jointly creates a sustainable environment.”
Zhou Daqi, General Manager of Ericsson Taiwan, said: “Sustainability has always been the core strategy of Ericsson’s business operations. We are honoured to work with Woxu Energy and Chunghwa Telecom to promote the application and development of Taiwan’s offshore wind farm communication technology through the mobile enterprise private network. Taiwan’s energy transition. Our research shows that networking technology and digitalization will be the keys to tackling climate change and building a low-carbon future. We look forward to using advanced networking technologies (including 5G) to help the renewable energy industry effectively collect energy. Use data to further optimize the efficiency of energy production and utilization and move towards the goal of net zero carbon emissions and a sustainable economy.”
