X1 Wind is a company based in Barcelona, Spain, specializing in the development of innovative floating wind platforms for deep-water offshore wind energy. Founded in 2017, X1 Wind has engineered its platform to achieve a significant reduction in both cost and weight—by 50 percent and 80 percent, respectively—compared to traditional floating wind systems. The design features fewer active systems than current alternatives, allowing for simplified installation that can be completed at the port and transported to the site using a small tugboat. This approach not only enhances operational depth range but also improves scalability and reduces maintenance requirements. By focusing on these advancements, X1 Wind aims to provide a clean, affordable energy solution while contributing to global efforts to lower carbon emissions.
