Hexicon and EGI bundle expertise to optimise FOW transmission connections

Wind Energy – Floating Wind

Hexicon and Elia Grid International join forces to connect the wind energy produced by Floating Offshore Windfarms (FOW) to the onshore grid, and that on a global scale.

The two companies will develop concepts and projects to integrate large scale floating offshore wind parks into the onshore power systems.

In doing so, they will create the opportunity to harvest the immense untapped potential of floating offshore wind to provide clean energy to millions of households and accelerate the energy transition.

The 5-year long cooperation consists of two phases, covering the provision of advanced expertise during both the pre-development and the development phases of the projects.

Work is expected to start in June 2022.
