The project aims to bring down the levelized cost of electricity by optimizing the design and extending the lifetime of offshore monopile foundations through the development of improved soil-structure Interaction models validated by in-situ measurements and medium scale experiments.

The existing operational and planned wind farms (2.2 GW before 2020) combined with the plans of the Federal government for a supplementary zone for offshore wind (1.7 GW targeted), boosted the industrial valorization momentum for this project and emphasized the timely character of this project
