LA CIOTAT, France BW Ideol and ENEOS Corp. have signed a joint development agreement to develop a commercial-scale floating wind farm offshore Japan.

The project will be based on BW Ideol’s patented Damping Pool technology.

Paul De La Guérivière, CEO of BW Ideol, said: “This collaboration confirms once again that our two-leg strategy of providing a proven technology and investing in the co-development of a project is extremely relevant in the context of a fast-accelerating new industry.”

In June 2021, ENEOS was selected as the operator of a floating offshore wind power generation project off the coast of Goto City in Nagasaki Prefecture.
