DI Energi has signed a letter of intent with the Japanese research association FLOWRA on a technology development collaboration within floating offshore wind. The agreement was signed on 23 April during the conference ‘The Future of Clean Energy’ in Tokyo. DI Energi writes on its website.
Floating offshore wind is considered a necessary solution for exploiting wind resources in deep water, where it is not possible to place turbines on fixed foundations. The technology is still under development, but has particular potential in countries such as Japan, where deep-sea areas dominate.
FLOWRA is a technical research association that works with overseas organizations to research and develop common basic technologies for floating offshore wind in order to reduce costs and risks. FLOWRA already collaborates with players in Norway, the UK and the Netherlands, and with the agreement with DI Energi, Denmark becomes part of the circle. The goal is to establish a cooperation framework before the end of 2025, where, among other things, joint technologies are to be developed that can reduce costs and risks. The collaboration was initiated by Henrik Stiesdal, founder of Stiesdal.
- We at DI Energi are excited about the ambitious goals and plans for offshore wind energy in Japan. We hope to be able to use our experience within offshore wind in Japan, and we look forward to collaborating with our competent partners at FLOWRA and their members, who are leading players in the Japanese energy sector, says Troels Ranis, industry director at DI Energi.
