ACCESS TO BETTER WIND CONDITIONS
The TwinWind™ foundation allows the complete unit to freely rotate with the wind direction, which makes the site able to access better wind conditions.
INDEPENDENT OF WATER DEPTH
The floating platform makes wind power production possible on deep waters.
EFFICIENT MAINTENANCE
Standardized design and infrastructure make the maintenance of the TwinWind efficient both at sea and onshore.
HIGH POWER DENSITY
Two turbines on one foundation enable a higher power density through installation of more power per area compared to similar technology.
Sustainability
As future societies and industries become increasingly electrified, the demand for renewable and fossil-free energy will continue to rise. Recognizing this, Hexicon has made it a central part of its strategy to drive and support the development towards a sustainable energy supply for industries and societies. By harnessing the enormous potential of wind power at sea, Hexicon aims to create favorable conditions for countries, communities, and industries to make sustainable, resource-efficient, and long-term choices that will power a greener future.
The blue economy is about conserving ocean resources and protecting marine life. The ocean is home to important ecosystems that must be preserved, protected, and restored. Our business model is based on a deep respect for the sea’s nature and historical, economical, and cultural uses. Therefore, Hexicon’s work contributes to a cleaner, healthier, and more vibrant ecosystem. The advantageous construction of floating wind power foundations allows them to be placed far offshore in deep waters, both beyond the horizon and beyond human sight.
The ocean is home to a diverse range of life and holds immense intrinsic value. As responsible stewards of this resource, we at Hexicon understand the importance of respecting the ocean and all of its incumbent users, including its inherent nature and wildlife. We recognize the value of collaboration and coexistence, and work closely with local and national stakeholders such as fisheries, environmental groups, and the military to maintain and improve the health of our oceans.
The energy industry has great experience in managing long-lived, large capital projects and is well positioned to participate in the sustainable offshore wind business, and that is also why we partner with traditional oil- and gas companies. Together, we can accomplish a transition from fossil energy to renewable.
Research have shown that the floating foundations can have some positive effects on the marine ecosystem. For example, several studies show that floating wind power farms can act as artificial reefs which create protected areas under the surface, beneficial for several fish species. The sea around the wind farms can also be shielded from trawling, creating nursery areas that contribute to more sustainable fishing.
Another advantage for the marine ecosystem is that the building structure for floating wind power can be easily removed, and the marine environment restored during decommissioning and dismantling.
