What ECO TLP does
ECO TLP Inc. is a privately held Delaware C-Corp that designs and develops concrete foundation platforms for deep-water floating offshore wind turbines. The company's flagship ECO TLP is a patented hybrid spar-tension leg platform (SPAR-TLP) engineered for water depths of 250-3000m, protected by U.S. Patent 9856621 with additional global patents pending. The product portfolio has been expanded to span the full floating-wind water-depth spectrum: ECO GBS (30-100m, gravity base structure), ECO MID (100-250m), and the ECO TLP (250-3000m), with FLOATRING providing stability during shallow-port self-tow-outs. The design uses SLIP-FORM concrete construction with non-proprietary, competitively bid components, enabling localized fabrication with regional materials and labor, which the company positions as yielding the lowest DEVEX, CAPEX, OPEX, and DECEX in the offshore wind market.
The firm has obtained ABS NSS FEED certification (American Bureau of Shipping, Naval Architecture, Structures & Systems, Front End Engineering Design) and completed 1:60 scale model testing at MARIN Model Basin in Wageningen, Netherlands. Its signature SPAR-TLPs have been identified as the preferred foundation solution for over 24GW+ of deep-water floating arrays worldwide, and the company has secured preferred access to fabrication and assembly facilities in the U.S., Norway, Australia, Asia, and LATAM. The firm operates from offices in Indianapolis, Hartford, and Los Angeles with affiliate offices in London, Rotterdam, and Kristiansand, and a planned Tokyo office.
ECO TLP's business model is enterprise B2B with quote-based, one-time project engagements targeting offshore wind developers and wind farm operators. Revenue is derived from design, fabrication, and deployment of floating offshore wind foundations; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company has no disclosed revenue, no disclosed funding rounds, no named customers, and a 1-10 employee footprint, indicating it is in a pre-commercial to early-commercial stage. Strategic positioning emphasizes local content compliance, cost competitiveness, 30-year asset life with minimal maintenance, and ancillary benefits including carbon sequestration and artificial reef marine habitat creation.

ECO TLP product offering
Product offeringCore offering
ECO TLP designs and develops patented concrete foundation solutions for floating offshore wind turbines. Its portfolio includes the ECO TLP hybrid spar-tension leg platform for 250-3000m water depths, the ECO MID for 100-250m depths, and the ECO GBS gravity base structure for 30-100m depths, supported by the FLOATRING for shallow-port self-tow stability. The integrated solution is built via localized fabrication using non-proprietary, competitively bid components and is positioned as the lowest DEVEX, CAPEX, OPEX and DECEX option in the offshore wind market.
Product overview
ECO TLP Inc. offers a unified portfolio of three SLIP-FORMed offshore wind concrete foundation solutions spanning a range of water depths: the flagship ECO TLP (250–3000m, hybrid spar-tension leg platform), ECO MID (100–250m), and ECO GBS (30–100m, gravity base structure). The company also provides FLOATRING for shallow-port self-tow-out stability. All three foundation types share a common localized fabrication approach using non-proprietary, competitively bid components, and are supported by patented construction, installation, and deployment processes. The portfolio is marketed as an integrated WTG offshore wind foundation platform scaling globally with low DEVEX, CAPEX, OPEX, and DECEX.

ECO TLP competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Bladt Industries: Danish manufacturer of offshore wind foundations (monopiles, jackets, transition pieces) and floating substation platforms. Comparable to ECO TLP as an established offshore wind substructure supplier with fabrication infrastructure ECO TLP partners with.
- Smulders: Large European offshore wind foundation fabricator with established monopile and jacket infrastructure. Comparable to ECO TLP as an incumbent in offshore wind substructures, though focused on fixed-bottom rather than floating foundations.
- Equinor Hywind: Equinor's Hywind spar-based floating wind platform (Hywind Scotland, Hywind Tampen) is the first utility-scale floating wind reference. Comparable to ECO TLP as both deploy concrete/metal spar concepts for deep-water floating wind, though Equinor is also a developer/operator.
Emerging players
- Hexicon: Swedish floating offshore wind developer using a semi-submersible TwinWind foundation concept. Comparable to ECO TLP as a focused floating-wind foundation specialist competing for the same developer-driven pipeline.
- Olav Olsen / TetraSpar Alliance: Norwegian marine engineer co-developing the TetraSpar floating wind foundation (with INNOSEA and Stiesdal). Comparable to ECO TLP as a design-driven floating foundation technology provider.
- Glosten (PELA): U.S. naval architecture and marine engineering firm developing the PELA Tension-Leg Platform for floating offshore wind. Directly comparable to ECO TLP as a smaller, technology-led competitor focused on TLP-style deep-water floating foundations.
Direct peers
- BW Ideol: French floating offshore wind foundation developer (barge / Damping Pool concept) with concrete-based designs. Comparable to ECO TLP as both target floating wind developers with concrete foundation IP and pursue serial, localized fabrication.
- Principle Power: Developer of the WindFloat semi-submersible floating offshore wind foundation, the most commercial reference in the floating wind foundation space. Directly comparable to ECO TLP as both sell floating foundation technology to offshore wind developers for deep-water sites.
- Aker Solutions (Stiesdal Offshore Technologies): Stiesdal is developing the TetraSpar floating foundation concept in partnership with Aker Solutions. Directly comparable to ECO TLP as both develop concrete/steel floating foundation technology for deep-water offshore wind.
- SBM Offshore: Floating production and mooring specialist that has actively developed floating wind foundation concepts (e.g., Floating Power Plant / SBM-derived designs). Comparable to ECO TLP through floating foundation technology targeting deep-water offshore wind.
