Wind Rider is a UK-based company committed to making the world a better place by reducing the cost of offshore wind.
Imagine turbines dancing with the wind, not fighting it.
Our breakthrough innovation removes the root cause of high costs – wind loads – by allowing turbines to passively rotate and align with the wind, minimizing loads and harnessing the full power of the wind, reducing LCOE by at least 15%.
This game-changing technology brings many benefits:
Lighter towers and foundations:
Less wind loads means less material, significantly reducing construction costs.
Better maintenance: With less equipment overhead, maintenance becomes safer and cheaper.
Simpler logistics: More manageable towers, smaller, lighter foundations mean easier transportation and installation, saving time and money.
More energy: Continuous alignment and reduced wake effect with the wind maximizes energy capture.
