American Offshore Energy is dedicated to developing offshore, floating, vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). These turbines have a broader base and much lower center of gravity than horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT), so they float easily, allowing for inexpensive siting in optimal Class 6 winds. AOE’s patented VAWT technology has just one moving part, the rotor, supported at the perimeter by near frictionless patented radial air bearings enabling direct drive energy generation and eliminating the entire drive line. AOE’s VAWTs are less expensive and faster to build, resulting in 50% cost reduction per MW, shorter delivery time, and they require less maintenance in operation than traditional HAWT.
