Marine renewable energy
Bringing energy to new shores
Windion develops a system harvesting wind at sea and delivering steerable electricity to small and large grids through light infrastructure.
Urgency
Time is running out to deploy clean, independent energy at scale. We are convinced that mobility is the key: faster to deploy, simpler to operate, at any size.
The island problem
Islands electricity is tied to oil. It has a heavy carbon footprint reaching 600 g/kWh eq CO₂. Price is high and fluctuating. Yet, many could benefit from strong wind energy near their coasts.

The solution
Windion is a ship that produces electricity and delivers it near shore thanks to batteries. It requires no assembly port, features easy maintenance and is independent from depth.
Resilience
As a ship, Windion is not threatened by hurricanes and can even accomplish rescue missions to support damaged grids.
Impact
Windion delivers seamless deployment, especially for islands. Moreover, it features a predictable LCOE (levelized cost of electricity).
Partners
