FLOCAN 2 GRID – New Platform Solutions and Innovative Technologies Associated with the Evacuation and Grid Integration of Floating Offshore Wind Farms

The FLOCAN 2 GRID project, New Platform Solutions and Innovative Technologies Associated with the Evacuation and Grid Integration of Floating Wind Farms, was carried out between 2015 and 2018 and, in addition to Ormazabal, includes the participation of Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios, Esteyco, Vicinay Sestao, NEM Solutions and Nautilus Floating Solutions.

Objectives:

The objective of Flocan 2 Grid is to research and develop the technical and economic viability of two full-scale floating technologies, as well as the energy evacuation system and the infrastructure necessary for its integration into the grid in a real-life representative operating environment. The project seeks to position itself in a strategic sector such as multi-megawatt wind energy production in medium and deep waters through the first experimental offshore wind farm in Spain.

Project financed by:

FLOCAN 2 GRID is a project financed by the Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness, through the Strategic Program of National Business Research Consortiums (CIEN) of the CDTI.
