Stillstrom has launched two standalone offshore charging systems designed to supply electric power to vessels operating at sea.
The company said the Power Hub and Power Tower can be deployed independently of turbine infrastructure, enabling flexible charging across operational and future offshore wind developments.
It added that the systems are intended to address one of the sector’s most pressing challenges by improving access to reliable offshore power for service vessels.
The Power Hub is a compact monopile-mounted structure for installation within existing wind farms, while the Power Tower is designed for new-build projects using standard construction methods.
The solutions aim to support vessel electrification, reducing reliance on maritime fuels and lowering greenhouse gas emissions from offshore wind operations.
The launch builds on Stillstrom’s research and development work, including patented offshore charging technologies and new applications pending protection.
“Our two new monopile systems help to address the sector’s long-standing ‘chicken and egg’ challenge, where vessel electrification and infrastructure deployment must progress in step,” said Koen Legrand, detailed engineering manager at Stillstrom.
“The Power Hub is a compact, monopile-mounted structure designed for installation within operational wind farms, enabling charging capability to be added to existing infrastructure.”
“Our mission is to eliminate vessel emissions, the largest source of CO2 in offshore wind farm operations,” said Kristian Borum Jørgensen, chief executive of Stillstrom.
“These new solutions give developers and operators practical, scalable options, enabling offshore charging either fully integrated within wind farm structures or through standalone offshore installations.”
