TECHNOLOGY
Conventional floating wind technology is borrowed from oil and gas and does not work at scale. We built a better solution.
Our technology enables the serial production of football field-sized platforms, making it possible to deploy hundreds of units in years, not decades.
Energy providers can accelerate their construction timelines using existing fabrication sites, vessels and port facilities. Here’s how.

PLATFORM
1
Assembly-Transport Cradle
Allows each component to be placed in proper position, accelerating final assembly. Cradle can be easily maneuvered for transport.

ASSEMBLY METHOD:
standard, vertical assembly
LOAD-OUT METHOD:
CONVENTIONAL (E.g., RING CRANE)
TURBINE INTEGRATION:
CONVENTIONAL (quayside)
BEST FOR:
LARGE ASSEMBLY SITES
AIKIDO’S ADVANTAGE:
SPEED UP FINAL ASSEMBLY BY 5X
ASSEMBLY METHOD:
Horizontal, on cradle
LOAD-OUT METHOD:
semi-submersible barge or similar
TURBINE INTEGRATION:
CONVENTIONAL (quayside), post-upending
BEST FOR:
Final assembly site is different from turbine integration site
AIKIDO’S ADVANTAGE:
SPEED UP FINAL ASSEMBLY BY 10X
Lower space requirements 3x
Lower space requirements 3x
ASSEMBLY METHOD:
horizontal on cradle inside drydock
LOAD-OUT METHOD:
float-off
TURBINE INTEGRATION:

UTILIZE standard drydocks
UTILIZE standard drydocks
ASSEMBLY METHOD:
horizontal assebmly
LOAD-OUT METHOD:
launchpad (forthcoming!)
TURBINE INTEGRATION:
CONVENTIONAL (quayside)
BEST FOR:
Final assembly site is co-located with turbine integration site
AIKIDO’S ADVANTAGE:
As before, but now includes load-out and quayside upending
