X1 Wind’s patented offshore wind technology offers a highly scalable and cost-competitive floating offshore wind (FOW) platform. It combines a lightweight design with streamlined installation and maintenance, revolutionising how FOW is deployed globally. Backed by a fully operational pilot in a real sea environment, X1 Wind demonstrates proven performance and exceptional technology survivability in extreme conditions. Its proven offshore wind technology is not only ready to scale, but is also enhanced by proprietary software and AI tools that optimise operations, reduce costs, and improve asset intelligence across the project lifecycle.
The need
Offshore renewable energy is crucial in achieving climate neutrality by 2050 (European Commission). However, floating wind solutions in sites located in deep waters can pose a particular challenge. Current technology is too costly for utilities and power producers.
The solution
X1 Wind has developed an effective solution for the offshore wind market: an innovative floating wind platform that significantly reduces capital expenditures and levelised cost of energy (LCOE). With floating offshore wind now cost-effective, this taps into the phenomenal wind potential of deep-water locations. X1 Wind’s approach is based on a downwind-configured weathervane platform that makes an efficient structural design possible with minimal environmental impact on the ocean.
