Welcon to produce the world’s first tetraspar floating offshore foundation

Welcon has received the order to produce the first TetraSpar floating offshore foundation for a consortium comprising Shell, innogy and Stiesdal Offshore Technologies.

We are very proud to be involved in this exiting project, which can be a game changer in offshore foundations for wind turbines.

The way this foundation is designed fits perfectly into our production line. We will be able to produce the TetraSpar foundations at about the same cost per kg as the towers we mass produce at the present time. This cost level will represent a game changing leap relative to existing floating offshore wind technology.

For detailed information please see the enclosed Press Release from Shell, Innogy and Stiesdal Offshore Technologies.
