Innovation is more critical than ever as the energy sector faces increasing cost pressures, policy shifts, and geopolitical uncertainty. Innovation is transforming offshore wind, and Tree Composites is leading the charge. At the Offshore Wind Innovators Awards 2024, Tree Composites secured both the Jury Award and the Audience Award, recognizing its game-changing composite joint technology for offshore wind turbine jacket foundations.
Revolutionizing Offshore Wind Foundations
Tree Composites’ technology extends the lifespan of jacket foundations by 5,000 times while using 50% less material than conventional steel-welded joints. This breakthrough significantly reduces CO₂ emissions, lowers costs, and improves efficiency—critical in today’s push for more cost-effective offshore wind solutions.
Key Benefits of the TC-Joint:
- 30–50% reduction in steel usage
- Lower carbon footprint during manufacturing
- Higher production efficiency, making offshore wind more competitive
- Stronger and longer-lasting foundation structures
Industry Recognition & Future Impact
“This is the future,” said Maxim Segeren of Tree Composites, highlighting the industry’s need for smarter, more efficient solutions. As cost pressures mount in offshore wind, innovations like this will be essential for scaling renewable energy.
