Sector: Energy – Offshore Renewables
The client: Confidential, Asia
Phase: Concept Selection
Challenges:
The client sought to develop a floating solar concept and has been exploring the possibility of deployment it in the offshore environment. They had a broad concept but did not have the engineering team to perform concept ideation and selection. SWAX was engaged to provide cost-effective support and bring extensive and diverse experience and capability to the ideation process.
Scope:
SWAX held concept ideation sessions with the client and a few options were developed further to understand their feasibility. These were compared to other concepts in the public domain. Then SWAX developed the subsequent project scope and a phased execution plan including a number of workshops for further concept ideation, selection of concept, material feasibility and selection and more detailed investigation of the concept.
Benefits/Business impact:
The SWAX team with its extensive experience in new product development and product commercialization, systematically performed concept development activities in a very tight budget and timeline to enable the client to confidently assess the feasibility and plan the next steps enroute to commercialization.
