OIPS
OIPS
The OIPS project is a consortium, which is based in a floating offshore wind energy in hybridization with aquaculture located in Porto Santo, in the Madeira archipelago.
The project has 20 years lifetime and the objectives are to develope, fabricate and operate a full scale floating offshore wind multi-turbine platform with an innovative automatized aquaculture system.
OIPS project has recieved funds from IDERAM and is currently under development.
Our Core Values
OIPS added values

WIND RESOURCES ANALYSIS
WINDS AT 80M HEIGHT
Vmax ≈ 21m/s = 76 km/h
WIND DIRECTION AT 80M HEIGHT
notes
- Average wind velocity = 7.75m/s
(during 1year at 80m height) - Prevailing winds from NORTH-EAST
- Wind Velocity Distribution between 7-9 m/s
Electrical modulation - EEM Scenarios
With the installed storage systems – batteries
Scenario 1 -> 2 x 3MW
Scenario 2 -> 2 x 5MW
Scenario 3 -> 2 x 10MW
Electrical connection by cable between islands [Porto Santo – Madeira]
Scenario 4 -> 3 platforms – 3 x 5MW = 30MW
Preliminary results of synchronous simulation for the possible installation of offshore platforms in Porto Santo
Aquaculture Integration
Integrate fish production with floating wind energy on a multipurpose platform.
Take advantage of the platform structure and mooring in aquaculture.
Use part of the electrical energy produced to power the autonomous fish feed system.
More profit and value.
