Hitachi Zosen and Naval Energies have continued their collaboration by signing a Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU).

This MOU is a next step after the feasibility study for a new project, a part of which was conducted in 2019. The aim of that study was to jointly design and build floating wind turbines using Naval Energies’ semi-submersible floater solution off the Japanese coast.

In parallel with the feasibility study, the two companies plan to extend their collaboration to other projects and to start defining their future industrial cooperation in more detail.

Takashi Fujita, General Manager of Wind Power Business Unit at Hitachi Zosen Corporation, said: “Among all floating wind energy foundations considered in the world, we consider that Naval Energies’ semi-submersible floater, which has many advantages, one of the best in the market. The new agreement will consolidate our cooperation and we hope that Naval Energies and Hitachi Zosen will contribute to the development of the floating wind energy industry in Japan.”

Laurent Schneider-Maunoury, President of Naval Energies, said: “This new agreement is a sign of mutual trust between our two companies, it consolidates our existing cooperation and lays the foundations for a strong partnership for the future of floating wind energy in Japan. We are proud to be a partner of Hitachi Zosen, a world-renowned industrial group.”
