UNLEASHING THE POWER OF

OFFSHORE WIND

Wind Catching Systems is developing the Windcatcher - a floating wind solution with a potential to reduce the LCoE of floating wind by focusing on standardization, scalability, improved operations and acreage efficiency.

    Standardization

    Direct-drive permanent magnet turbines designed for local mass production in any market region

  • 3D image, close up of the elevator system used to inspect, maintain and replace wind turbines

    Disruptive O&M capability

    An elevator system can reach any turbine position for inspection, maintenance or replacement of units

  • 3D image, showing how the 40MW configuration of the WCS would look

    Capacity scaling

    The Windcatcher system scales with the number of turbines, not with the size of each turbine

  • 3D image, size comparison between a Commissioning Service Operation Vessel, a WCS sail and a single standard wind turbine

    Efficient use of acreage

    The Windcatcher technology maximizes the electricity production per floating unit, maximizing acreage utilization
