HiPRWind is the largest offshore wind R&D project funded by the EU Framework Programmes in terms of budget. It is focused on developing very large floating wind systems that may unlock cost-efficient renewable energy production from deep water areas all around the world.
This website is directed at users outside the project team and contains all public information. It aims to show how HiPRWind responds to the R&D challenges faced in the design, construction, operation and maintenance of deep-water wind energy installations and how we address some key enabling technologies for this.
The project consortium brings together a strong team of European partners from large industry, SME's, applied R&D Centers and Universities, and is led by the Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy and Energy System Technology.
