Turbine AgnosticHull Trim System (Active ballast)1 2
3 4Water Ballast (Operational draft)
•Any conventional commercial Turbines
•Minimum redesign in:
- Control system – software
- Tower – structural interface
• Located at the bottom of each column and used to achieve operating draft
• More water in the columns not supporting the turbine
• Move platform natural response above the wave excitation (mass of entrained water)
• Viscous damping reduces wave induced motions

• Displaces some water between columns to compensate for changes in mean wind velocity and direction
Heave Plates (Dynamic Stability)

• Vestas V80 2MW performed as well as on a
bottom-fixed foundation - Generated over 17
GWh of clean energy
• Operation up to 1-year Return Period Storm
Conditions (Hs=7m)
• Endured intense storms: 17m waves, 30+m/s
winds
• Demonstrated philosophy of construction,
installation, and decommissioning
• Incorporated lessons to improve next
generation of technology
WindFloat is a proven technology: Successful 5-year Lifecycle Demonstration in North Atlantic (WF1 from 2011-2016)
Financing Entities are already seeing the large paradigm shift the WindFloat represents in terms of Reduction of Cost and Risk…
Risk
Reduction of Cost and Risk
• Reduce Environmental
Impact and Geotechnical
Requirements
• Marine Spread / Existing
Vessels
• Flexible Site Location / Water
Depth independence
• Lower Interface Risk with
offshore contractor
• Serial Production
• Lower Weather

Jump-starting the industry in CA with the Redwood Coast Offshore Wind Project…
100-150 MW, California, Operational 2024Flagship project for offshore wind industry in CA and the West Coast
• 12+ MW offshore wind turbines
• 25+ miles out; 700-900 m deep; world-class wind resource (9.5+ m/s)
• Deployable by 2024
• Creation of a public-private partnership with RCEA
• PPI part of Consortium and WindFloat tech selected by RCEA’s RFQ in March 2018
• Strong local community support and control
• Potential to revitalize the Port of Humboldt Bay; could become leading hub on West Coast
• Large potential to drive investments in infrastructure and create local jobs
Once validated, floating foundations are well poised to leverage cost reductions in the fixed bottom value chain

Key Takeaways
22
The WindFloat is already proven technology, and is now proving its financial and economic viability;
The WindFloat addresses the industry’s bottom-fixed foundation challenges, while enabling offshore wind to reach its full potential;
Principle Power is already executing on several pre-commercial projects globally => ~100MW of expected floating wind capacity installed by 2021;
WindFloat expected to be deployed commercially in the marketplace by end of decade;
The key for market leadership is to continue executing on pre-commercial projects and developing utility-scale commercial projects.
