A basic agreement signed with IX Renewables to collaborate on offshore wind power generation projects
Tokyo Gas Engineering Solutions Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Yasuhiro Konishi, hereinafter referred to as "TGES") has signed a basic agreement (hereinafter referred to as "this agreement") with IX Renewables B.V. (President and CEO: EV Kamphues, hereinafter referred to as "IX") of the Netherlands to collaborate on an offshore wind power generation project.
This agreement combines IX's expertise in offshore wind power generation with TGES's knowledge of energy infrastructure engineering and Japanese domestic regulations, with the aim of jointly winning orders for engineering services (technical support for design, construction, and O&M) and project management.
Summary of the Agreement
- Combines IX's expertise in offshore wind power generation, cultivated through its business in Europe and Taiwan, with TGES's deep knowledge of energy infrastructure construction and operation, as well as Japanese regulations, standards, and certification requirements.
- The quality of services in EPCI *1 management, engineering, financial advisory, and O&M strategy consulting for wind power generation projects .
- Establishing a framework for customer introductions and joint orders
IX has been operating an offshore wind power consulting business in the Netherlands since 2006 , specializing in EPCI management and consulting across the entire wind power lifecycle. With offices in Europe and Asia, the company provides comprehensive project solutions that integrate technical, commercial and legal expertise to developers and investors worldwide.
TGES has been involved in owner's engineering, construction, and maintenance services for energy infrastructure ( LNG terminals, pipelines, district heating and cooling plants, etc. ) both in Japan and overseas for over 50 years. As a member of the Tokyo Gas Group, which was one of the first in Japan to start handling LNG, the company has earned a high reputation for its technical excellence and reliability. In recent years, the company has been leveraging the technical capabilities it has cultivated in the gas business and other fields to work in the renewable energy field and has also expanded into offshore wind power engineering .
Under this agreement, the two companies will work to create specific project opportunities.
Comment from IX President Eric Kamphues
Japan's offshore wind market is at a critical juncture, and by combining IX's international wind power experience with TGES' strong engineering foundation and deep knowledge of the Japanese market, we aim to provide high-quality, reliable solutions to offshore wind operators and investors.
Comment from Yasuhiro Konishi, President of TGES
TGES has built an outstanding engineering foundation in the gas industry. Offshore wind power plays a major role in Japan's decarbonization. Through this agreement with IX, TGES will strengthen its capabilities to support offshore wind power developers, thereby contributing to the promotion of decarbonization and the development of a sustainable society.
