Meet our Accelerator Cohort 2024
After an extensive global search for the most groundbreaking companies and innovative offshore wind solutions, we are thrilled to introduce our 2024 Offshore Wind Innovation Hub Accelerator Cohort.
Cohort 2024
-
Boxkite Software
Boxkite Software develops a rapid online analysis system that quickly produces up to bankable-level accuracy energy yield assessments. This allows for swift site feasibility analysis, comparing different farm layout options, and iterating site design.
-
Claviate
Claviate provides a visual data platform, using strategically placed cameras and sensors that record every step of the construction process. AI software collates and anonymizes the data, providing developers and OEMs with a transparent overview of progress.
-
Indeximate
Indeximate supplies a fibre optic sensing technology for predictive maintenance of subsea power cables. By remotely profiling the integrity and condition, cable lifetimes are extended and inspection is targeted, cheaper, and more efficient. The technology is hardware agnostic.
-
Pliant Energy Systems
Pliant Energy Systems develops a highly maneuverable autonomous underwater vehicle with robotic propulsion technology. This efficient undulating propulsion system, with stealth characteristics and amphibious capabilities, enables new seafloor surveying capabilities.
-
Sensatek
Sensatek enables structural health monitoring of turbine blades by using video-based dynamic measurement analysis that extracts pixel-level vibration information. Utilizing ruggedized smart camera enclosures and motion extraction, the technology enables early detection and monitoring of damage progression.
-
Triton Anchor
Triton Anchor develops a novel low-cost, silently installed, foundation installation system. The modular anchor design allows for all platform sizes and soil types, allowing for any mooring configuration and it is marine life friendly. Technology also allows local manufacturing and rapid fabrication.
Cohort 2023
-
