Wedoany.com Report-Oct 10, The 1,125 MW MunmuBaram floating offshore wind farm, being developed by Hexicon and Shell in South Korea, has entered into a Transmission Service Agreement (TSA) with Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO).

MunmuBaram is collaborating with two other developers on the grid connection facilities. These facilities are said to enable the efficient transfer of clean energy from each wind farm to the mainland, ensuring a stable and reliable power supply.

The agreement was signed with KEPCO during an official ceremony, along with other developers in the Ulsan Floating Offshore Wind Association. According to Hexicon, this achievement signifies a commitment from KEPCO to ensuring a grid connection for 6 GW of renewable energy to the national grid for many years to come.
