BEIS awarded £31.6 million in grant funding for demonstration of innovative floating offshore wind technologies. Eleven projects were funded, covering 5 challenge areas:

1. Dynamic cables
2. Anchorings and moorings
3. Floaters and foundations
4. Industry defined innovation (other technology, not 1, 2 or 3)
5. Integrated demonstration of multiple technologies

Projects will demonstrate an innovative technology in the hope of reducing costs and increasing the rate of deployment of floating offshore wind turbines.
