With a bachelor’s degree in social sciences and technology management, and an exchange programme diploma from University of Southern Denmark (SDU), Hsien has knowledge of not just the wind industry and sustainability, but also Denmark and Danish culture.
“When I was in university, the wind industry was growing in Taiwan. During my year of studying in Denmark at SDU, we had an introduction course in sustainable energy. We were introduced to Ørsted and energy policies in Denmark. My curiosity was definitely fulfilled there, and it stuck in my mind. After going back to Taiwan, I saw that, wow, these Danish companies were really operating there, and have activities that you can join.”
Hsien joined CS WIND Offshore (then Bladt) in the beginning of 2023, after having worked in Taiwan in the joint venture between Bladt and Taiwanese Century Wind Power.
In the partnership with Century Wind Power, Bladt built 62 jacket foundations for the Changfang and the Xidao wind farms off the Changhua Coast, Taiwan. The two projects have a combined capacity of 589 MW.
