After several \u00a0rounds of design optimisation and tank testing, reaching TRL5 in 2015 for all main subsystems with testing at Flowave (University of Edinburgh), culminating in eight testing campaigns at four laboratories in three different European countries.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2016, Enerocean is sole owner of all the know-how and intellectual property related to W2Power. The main objective driving the evolution of the W2Power technology is to be the most cost-effective <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/importance-of-technology-certification-for-growing-investor-confidence-in-floating-wind-power\/44038\/\">floating offshore wind<\/a> solution, reducing the global cost of energy, and also with other options like multi-use (aquaculture, energy storage, wave energy, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>W2Power in its current design allows up to 20 MW power on a single floating foundation, using two commercially used offshore wind turbines currently on the market. Since 2019, W2Power has been the first floating offshore wind platform in Spanish waters and the first twin-turbine \u00a0floating solution to reach open-sea testing in the World, achieving TRL6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>W2Power is an innovative adaption of proven, mature offshore technologies to the needs of emerging deep-water offshore wind.
