Turbine innovations that result in faster, safer, cheaper and efficient onshore and offshore installations & maintenance
About us
CLS Wind's technical innovations result in faster, safer, cheaper and more efficient installation, maintenance, repair and decommissioning of onshore and offshore wind turbines. Our team has developed systems that provide flexible solutions to the onsite assembly and erection of wind turbines, installing them without the need for large, heavy and expensive cranes, as well as being able to install several turbines concurrently (parallel versus series installations). For onshore operations, this also means a smaller footprint for the construction site, with a substantially lower environmental impact. By applying our patented systems for the design of a comprehensive self-erection wind turbine tower, along with a unique self-positioning nacelle system, wind farm owners can start producing energy in a fraction of the time that it used to take in the recent past. In addition, maintenance, repair and decommissioning operations will become easier, faster and safer, getting the turbines back "online" or replaced faster than ever before.

We would like to thank SOFEC, Inc. for the hospitality during this great event, and to Thalía Krüger, Priya Narayanan and Naomi Jabbari, P.E. for inviting us to present participate in the Blue Economy and Offshore Energy: Innovations at Sea Panel. It was an honor to be part of such a select group and be part of this extremely interesting forum. We look forward to the next opportunity to reconnect with both old and new friends, and to keep offshore technology and innovation discussions alive and thriving!
SOFEC, Inc. Hosts a Successful Maritime, Offshore, and Energy Innovation Summit As part of Houston Energy & Climate Week 2025, SOFEC was proud to host an inspiring industry summit at our Houston facility, bringing together leaders across maritime, offshore, and energy to explore a sustainable future. Two sessions and six panels covered pivotal themes – from decarbonizing shipping with alternative fuels and port innovations, to the blue economy and floating offshore wind, AI and digitalization, Houston’s role in the new energy landscape, novel offshore transfer systems for low-emission fuels, and policy, partnerships, and resilient infrastructure in a changing climate. A huge thank you to the organizers – Thalía Krüger Kruger, President of NextBlue Industry, and Naomi Jabbari, P.E., Board Member of Women’s Energy Network - and to all sponsors, including Teadit & SNAME, as well as to all attendees who contributed to the rich dialogue and actionable insights. Together, we’re charting a new course for innovation at sea and beyond. — Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gdMXymSb SOFEC: https://www.sofec.com/ #SOFEC #decarbonization, #newenergy, #AI, #alternativefuels, #digitalization #ccus #houston

CLS Wind reposted this
The reliance on massive ring cranes has been identified as a major risk and bottleneck for Floating Offshore Wind (FOW) projects. Traditional installation methods are slow, require huge capital investment, and disrupt port operations, threatening project timelines and budgets. A breakthrough self-erecting system is changing this by enabling smaller, more readily available cranes to do the job.

Excellent initiative and honored to have been part of the initial experience! Thanks to everyone involved, including Greentown Labs, Innovation Dock, Equinor and in particular to Manon Chappat-Alarcón for making this international bridge connection a reality!!!
We've launched a new model to help startups scale across borders: the Ecosystem Exchange. This bilateral, in-person engagement model is designed to foster meaningful startup-corporate connections internationally, ultimately helping technologies enter new markets. Our first Ecosystem Exchange with Equinor in Norway last year and the upcoming ones with Equinor and Woodside Energy during Houston Energy and Climate Startup Week exemplify how ecosystems can mobilize to support emerging companies in the name of global energy and climate progress. Check out this case study ft. Greentown Houston members Advanced Ionics, CLS Wind, and CalWave Inc., Norwegian startups renasys, Hive Autonomy, Glint Solar, Installer.com, Australian startups PHNXX, SpiroPak, and SeaStock, and ecosystem supporters Innovation Dock, Startup Lab , and Greater Houston Partnership: https://lnkd.in/dNe7XJNE Meet these startups and learn more about cross-border collaboration at our #HECSW event on Sept. 17 at Ion Houston: https://lnkd.in/eTXi3_T9 Manon Chappat-Alarcón

Innovation is key to bring down the LCOE across the board! CLS Wind is working hard to bring innovative solutions to the market which will not only lower the assembly and maintenance costs for large capacity wind turbines, but also improve operations and safety!!
Floating Offshore Wind (FOW) holds huge promise—but global deployment still faces key challenges. This article explores two of the biggest hurdles: - Installing massive WTGs at port - Repairing major components at sea—without towing the floater back We highlight CLS Wind’s innovative approach to solving the port-side installation bottleneck, and how their solutions are paving the way for faster, more efficient FOW projects worldwide. Read more about how innovation is shaping the future of floating wind. #FloatingWind #OffshoreWind #WindEnergy #RenewableEnergy #FOW #GreenTech #EnergyTransition #SustainableEnergy #CleanEnergy
