LS Cable & System Shinanwui Offshore Wind Project Advances Korea’s Clean Energy Goals
LS Cable & System won the bid to supply subsea cables for the Shinanwui (Sinan Ui) offshore wind farm. The project will become South Korea’s largest offshore wind development, marking another step toward a cleaner, energy‑independent future.
Project Overview and Capacity
Hanwha Engineering & Construction leads the 400 MW offshore project located near Ui‑Do Island in Sinan County, South Jeolla Province. Once operational, the wind farm will generate over three times the capacity of all current Korean offshore wind farms combined.
The contract, estimated at US $79 million, includes designing, producing, and installing all subsea power cables needed for construction. LS Cable & System expects to deliver the cables in the second half of 2025, and the wind farm should finish construction in 2026.
Strengthening Korea’s Offshore Energy Industry
A company spokesperson shared that this project helps protect South Korea’s domestic renewable industry. They explained that foreign providers, especially from China, already dominate the country’s solar market and now aim for offshore wind. Because of that, this partnership with Hanwha E&C ensures Korean companies maintain leadership in renewable innovation.
