X1 Wind is developing a disruptive floating platform for offshore wind. The company said the design drivers have been a significant weight reduction compared to current systems, simplified installation with a quick connection system, elimination of unnecessary systems to reduce maintenance and scalability.
The PivotBuoy project has reportedly finalized its offshore demonstration, and data show ‘good’ alignment with the wind using passive orientation system.
X1 Wind has successfully laid its dynamic cable and is ready for final installation of its fully functional floating wind PivotBuoy prototype at the test site in the Canary Islands...
X1 Wind has secured €2.5 million ($3 million) through the European Innovation Council Accelerator program to launch its first commercial floating wind project.
