Its expertise includes floating and bottom-fixed wind, ports and offshore grids. It works as an Owner’s Engineer for developers and transmission system operators, supports floating-wind layouts and design studies, tendering, assembly, towing, installation and maintenance, and has assessed more than 100 ports in 12 countries for offshore-wind suitability.
- The company also studies carbon-reduction measures across wind-farm fabrication, transport and installation, location, costs and risks, including alternative fuels and lower-emissions steel production. It says seven global offices allow staff to move closer to projects and clients; its team includes 10 nationalities and 10 native languages.
- KONGSTEIN describes a global project portfolio including Hywind Tampen, Dogger Bank, work in Asia-Pacific and Southern Europe, the UK, and both US coasts. It says floating wind is a growing focus and claims unusually extensive floating-wind experience for a Western European consultancy of its size. The page includes testimonials, including one from Yael Viesel, Chief of Staff at ECOncrete, and three linked case studies: port screening; lessons from installed floating-wind projects; and the cost of minimizing emissions.
