Autonomous Sailboats for Wind Energy Harvesting
Sovereignty Starts With Power. On Time. Our Clean Energy.
Imagine harnessing energy where it's abundant and readily available. For example, in the waters west of Scotland: There, "Mean Power Density" at a height of 10 meters can reach approximately 850 W/m^2, whereas similar values in northern Germany are only achievable at a height of 150 meters above ground. This makes our endeavour promising and worth exploring further. Global Windatlas
We believe that the true potential lies in installations without the additional need for human labor. Our boats can be built at coastal locations and directly go into operation. While this approach is only available to regions with access to the international sea, it avoids land and airspace permits which sometimes lead to public opposition.
But the real magic happens beneath the surface. Unlike floating wind turbines, autonomous sailboats require far less ballast, as their generators are already submerged or at the waterline. This translates to cost savings, as the ballast only needs to counterbalance the weight of the sails/wings which are mounted lower than on wind turbines.

Your cleverness, curiosity and enthusiasm are the wind in our sails, driving us towards a future where autonomous sailboats play a pivotal role in the energy sector. So, let's navigate these uncharted waters and make waves in the world of renewable electricity generation!
Safe
Our sailboats are equipped with proven technologies that are already widely used on their own. This ensures a safe and reliable operation, even in harsh maritime conditions.
Affordable
Our sailboats require far less ballast than floating wind turbines, as their generators are already submerged or at the waterline. This translates to cost savings and a more sustainable operation.
Sustainable
Our sailboats use wind energy, a rapidly renewable power source. By liberating the harvesting structure from the stationary constraint, we're able to capture renewable energy wherever it's abundant and readily available.
Globally Scalable
Given the global nature of the energy transition, a scalable approach is essential for the development of effective solutions. Easily manufactured at coastal sites, our sailboats can be deployed directly into operation, no site-specific installation or calibration is needed. While they are only available for regions with access to international waters, this approach bypasses the need for land use and airspace permits, streamlining deployment and accelerating scale.
Beyond Horizons
Designed to harness powerful offshore winds from the moment they launch, these intelligent vessels independently navigate to optimal locations. Those areas are in remote regions that are rarely seen by anyone. With a compact footprint and zero visual affect for most citizens, they offer a socially acceptable solution to renewable energy that communities welcome.
State Independent
Our autonomous sailing vessels redefine offshore wind by eliminating dependence on specific national jurisdictions. Unlike traditional stationary wind turbines, these mobile systems dynamically follow optimal wind conditions across waters of varying or even no nationality. Consequently, they serve as a reliable source of renewable energy, unencumbered by geopolitical considerations. This is offshore energy reimagined: Borderless, resilient, and government independent.
