Building Kaohsiung Port's Giant　Carrying the Past into the Future: Setting a New Milestone for Taiwan's Energy Landscape

In the harbor of Kaohsiung, an orange-red behemoth stands at the water's edge—Taiwan's largest 1,500-ton gantry crane—silhouetted against the southern skyline. Built by Intercontinental Wind Energy Co., Ltd. (IWE), this massive structure is more than an engineering accomplishment; it is a symbol of Taiwan's industrial transformation. Anchored in Kaohsiung, Intercontinental Wind Energy is expanding from fixed-bottom offshore wind to floating structures and broader energy applications, unlocking Taiwan's diverse energy potential and shaping a cross-generational energy industry landscape. Leading the team behind this achievement is Wenlin Chiang, IWE's Vice President, a female executive with fifteen years of deep experience across engineering and the energy sector.

"Intercontinental"—a Name Carrying Global Ambition

"'Intercontinental' reflects our vision: rooted in Taiwan, oriented toward the global market. 'The Chinese Character 鉅' represents scale, ambition, and depth," Chiang explained.

IWE's strategic focus lies in offshore wind foundations and floating structures. The company's goal is clear: first, to establish itself as the most trusted supplier in the Asia–Pacific market by delivering "reliable quality and on-time performance"; then, to expand its service portfolio and build an integrated energy value chain.
