Offshore floating renewables

By leveraging our extensive experience in project integration, TechnipFMC will serve as the system architect for offshore wind, wave and tidal projects. Our track record in subsea, combined with our global footprint, enable us to bring scalability to offshore floating renewables projects.

Wind, Wave and Tidal | Projects and partners

Offshore floating wind with Magnora

Magnora Offshore Wind, launched in March 2021, is our alliance with Norwegian renewables developer Magnora ASA that is focused on deepwater floating windfarms. These farms will increase generating capacity away from sea lanes and coastlines.

Magnora holds a strategic position in renewable energy as an owner in offshore wind, onshore wind, and solar development projects, and is a key enabler in solar energy technologies.

In January 2022, Magnora Offshore Wind was awarded an option for a 495 megawatt wind farm off the Western Isles in Scotland.

Offshore floating wind and wave with Bombora

Our strategic partnership with Bombora was established to develop the InSPIRE floating wind and wave power project utilizing Bombora’s patented mWave™ technology, which converts wave energy to electricity.

Since November 2020, the partnership has focused on developing a hybrid system that combines wind and wave technologies on a single floating structure, maximizing the efficiency of the overall system.

Offshore floating tidal with Orbital Marine Power

In November 2021, we announced a strategic investment in Orbital Marine Power to collaborate on the commercial roll-out of its tidal energy technology – the most powerful floating turbine in the world.

Tidal stream energy provides a reliable and consistent form of renewable energy that has the ability to make a cost-effective contribution to the energy transition.

Orbital’s unique floating turbine can harness underwater currents generated by tides, which are converted into electricity and exported to shore.

There is currently 1 gigawatt of consented tidal sites in the United Kingdom, where Orbital has been performing trials of its turbine.
