Wind Catching Systems AS is developing a floating, multi-turbine technology for wind farms that could generate and claims five of its Wind Catching units can produce the same amount of electricity as 25 conventional turbines. Whilst taking up significantly less space.
Wind Catching with a different approach
Designed to optimise energy production for a floating wind power plant
Designed for easy operations and maintenance
Elevator based turbine installation – all heavy operations performed on deck
No need for specialized vessels or cranes
50 year design life
Power to X – production and storage
Wind Catching Systems AS has the backing of investment companies North Energy and Ferd, and has developed the technology in conjunction with offshore wind supplier Aibel and the IFE Institute for Energy Technology.
