Developed from first principles to meet the main design criteria of life of field cost, safety, robustness, reduced risk and protection of investment. The concept has been patented and subjected to scale model testing at Stratclyde Hydrodynamics Tank to demonstrate stability in all orientations.

The turbine can be built, assembled, commissioned, and transported with blades in a horizontal position from shallow-water fabrication sites. Using self-buoyancy, the structure is easily towed to deeper waters, where it is upended into a vertical position without moving parts and towed to the final generating location.

Key benefits include:

• Highest local job creation

• Commercial feasibility in existing shallow water yards, reducing reliance on overseas manufacturing

• Lowest Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE) among FOW solutions

• Reduced steel usage and fabrication complexity

• Enables large-scale automated manufacturing

• Full commissioning in the yard, ensuring safety

• Minimizes offshore intervention, enhancing operational safety

• Best-in-class resilience for harsh environments with optimized motion characteristics

• Simplified recovery systems extend lifespan and mean time between failures (MTBF)

• Purpose-built to minimize lifecycle costs

By lowering costs, maintaining efficiency, and extending operational life, this scalable technology promises better returns on investment. We believe our solution represents the future of Floating Offshore Wind, offering superior performance and cost advantages in the growing renewable energy sector.

We are seeking partners to help us continue the delivery process including Energy Companies, Investors, Fabricators and like minds.
