FibreMax and Entrion Wind
A Partnership Expanding The Depths of Renewable Energy

We at FibreMax have always been committed to pushing the boundaries of renewable energy technology. Today, we're incredibly excited to announce that we have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Entrion Wind. This collaborative venture aims to propel offshore wind energy into deeper waters—literally.

About the Partnership

Our collaboration will focus on combining FibreMax's specialized fibre tendon technology with Entrion Wind's innovative FRP (Fully Restrained Platform) Wind Foundation) monopile design. The goal? To extend the operating depth of established monopile industries up to 100 meters. By doing so, we aim to make wind energy more accessible and cost-effective than ever.

The MoU Details

Under the MoU, both companies will jointly work on qualifying FibreMax’s high-strength fibre tendons for the FRP design. We will also be developing site-specific offerings for various FRP mooring configurations. Should the technology successfully commercialize, FibreMax is poised to establish additional satellite fabrication facilities to meet local content needs.

Why This Partnership Mattersv

  • Circularity: The Teijin Twaron ® fibers are circular! After service life there will be a buy-back scenario which insures the fibres will be reused.
  • Innovation: We are bridging the gap between fixed and floating wind energy technologies.
  • Durability: With Teijin Twaron ® -based tendons, our technology promises a service life of over 30 years, neglectable creep, no bedding in, no fibre-to-fibre abrasion, and no re-tensioning.

What’s Next?

"FibreMax is thrilled about the of the collaboration with Entrion Wind to introduce the innovative FRP technology. This FRP technology may extend the operating depth and improve the economics and supply chain of monopiles from 50 to 100 meters" - Sander van Helvoort, Director of Renewable Energy at FibreMax,

"Entrion Wind is very pleased to welcome FibreMax as a strategic partner for mooring supply for the FRP monopile technology. FibreMax’s expertise, history, focus and strategy as a pioneer and a leading international fabricator of fibre cables makes the company a preferred strategic partner for Entrion Wind”, Tomas Fertig, Vice President of Business Development.

We believe that the future of renewable energy is not just bright but also deep—deep into the oceans—and, together with Entrion Wind, we're making that future a reality.

Here’s to a greener, more sustainable future for all!
