Several top firms play a pivotal role in the floating offshore wind power market. These include Equinor ASA, Iberdrola S.A., RWE, Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Doosan Corporation, Siemens Gamesa, Ørsted A/S, Nexans SA, TechnipFMC plc, Nordex SE, SBM Offshore, MODEC Inc., Ming Yang Smart Energy Group, DNV AS, Hitachi ABB, Naval Energies, Ocean Winds, BW Ideol, Gazelle Wind Power Limited, and Principle Power. A notable collaboration was announced in November 2024, when UK-based TechnipFMC partnered with Italy-based Prysmian to enhance project delivery through an integrated engineering, procurement, construction, and installation (EPCI) model. This partnership aims to accelerate the deployment of floating offshore wind projects by offering a comprehensive solution. Prysmian's expertise in innovative cable manufacturing is a significant contribution to advancing this emerging market.

Emerging Trends Shaping the Future of Floating Offshore Wind Power
Innovation is at the forefront of the floating offshore wind power market, with companies focusing on new product developments like floating wind farm clusters. These clusters enable multiple turbines to share infrastructure such as mooring systems and subsea cables, which improves efficiency and reduces costs. For example, in March 2025, US-based ECO TLP introduced a new floating offshore wind turbine platform designed to enhance efficiency and scalability in deep-water offshore wind energy production. This platform incorporates advanced stability features that allow it to be deployed in deeper waters while lowering installation and maintenance expenses. Such innovations are expected to improve the economic viability of floating wind farms and accelerate the transition to renewable energy sources.
