- Stability studies
SPECIFICS
XCF concept is a MAREAL design for concrete wind turbine floater
- X-shaped semi-submersible concrete floater
- 6 MW to 12+ MW wind turbines
- Robustness and cost efficiency
- Catenary mooring
- The concept is currently improved for site specifics
- Done in partnership with MAREAL and WINDGLAZ
