English brief by Korea Wind Intelligence, koreawindintel.com
Myungwoon is convinced that the expansion of power infrastructure demand in the artificial intelligence era presents a golden opportunity to grow its offshore wind business. The company is pursuing large-scale offshore wind development projects in the southwestern waters while linking wind turbine manufacturer Unison with affiliate Samhae E&C to build a value chain spanning business development, equipment, and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC). This strategy reflects Myungwoon's plan to expand beyond being an offshore wind developer into a comprehensive wind business operator as power demand accelerates with the spread of AI data centers.
