TouchWind’s floating wind turbine features a unique downwind, tilting rotor with a single-piece blade. This patented design reduces wake losses, draws in faster winds from higher air layers, and allows turbines to be placed closer together — boosting wind farm efficiency. The self-stabilizing rotor removes the need for complex pitch control, while its storm-resilient “helicopter” position enables safe, continuous operation in extreme weather. Built for reliability, easy installation, and low maintenance, the TouchWind turbine can reduce both CAPEX and OPEX, offering a cost-effective path to higher offshore wind production.
TouchWind has developed an innovative floating wind turbine designed specifically for offshore applications. Its core innovation is a downwind, tilting rotor with a single-piece blade, providing several advantages over conventional three-bladed upwind turbines:
The tilted rotor redirects wake flows downward and taps into higher-altitude wind streams, enabling closer turbine spacing and higher energy yield per km².
The self-stabilizing tilt eliminates the need for active pitch control, reducing mechanical complexity and potential failure points.
In high winds, the rotor tilts to a near-horizontal “helicopter” position, limiting structural loads while continuing energy production.
Floating design enables deployment far from shore, unlocking high-wind areas unsuitable for fixed-bottom turbines.
Moderate turbine size enables local assembly, transport, and O&M without large crane vessels, reducing capital and operating costs by an estimated 10% and 30% respectively.
By combining high reliability, deep-water adaptability, and the potential for increased offshore wind density, the TouchWind concept offers a scalable solution for meeting ambitious renewable energy targets worldwide.
To accelerate the global transition to renewable energy by making offshore wind radically more efficient, resilient, and deployable — from shallow coasts to deep oceans.
TouchWind is built on the belief that offshore wind can be simpler, lighter, and dramatically more cost-effective. Our patented tilting, single-blade rotor is engineered to perform where conventional turbines fall short — in extreme conditions, on deep water, and at scale. With fewer components, reduced maintenance, and enhanced energy density, we’re enabling a future where offshore wind is not only possible — but practical, powerful, and everywhere.
Why it matters: context on energy transition and why offshore wind needs to evolve.
TouchWind Special Products is a separate branch of our company, created to apply our patented tilting rotor technology beyond floating wind farms. From mobile containerized systems to specialized solutions for defense, disaster relief, and remote industries, this branch explores new frontiers where agility and rapid deployment are key.
TouchWind is pioneering a new era of offshore wind with our patented tilting single-blade rotor. Drawing on more than 30 years of wind engineering expertise, we have developed a technology that dramatically reduces complexity, lowers costs, and enables large-scale deployment in deep waters where traditional turbines cannot go.
Our mission is to unlock affordable, scalable offshore wind power that can deliver clean energy anywhere in the world. For customers, that means dependable renewable power in even the harshest environments. For investors and partners, it represents a rare opportunity to join a breakthrough at the forefront of a rapidly expanding global market — as we scale from proven prototypes to commercial deployment.
