Doris Acquires WINDGLAZ, a Specialist in Offshore Wind and Solar Load Modelling

DORIS, a leader in engineering, advisory and project management for energy, announces its acquisition of WINDGLAZ, a specialist in the analysis and optimization of fixed offshore wind, floating offshore wind and floating solar systems.

Through this acquisition, DORIS’ extensive service offering to the offshore wind industry will expand to include WINDGLAZ’s specialist expertise in areas such as load calculation and aerodynamic modelling, enabling the companies to offer combined, integrated solutions to clients for the design, analysis, and installation of offshore wind systems.

Pierrick Sauvage, Head of Offshore Design at DORIS, commented, “This acquisition follows the successful collaborations between DORIS and WINDGLAZ across pilot and commercial wind farms projects with high-power range turbines in South Korea.”

“We are pleased to be presenting high-quality, integrated services to our international clients, combining DORIS’ high-quality and competitive design solutions with WINDGLAZ’s recognised skills in turbine modelling and coupled analysis.”

Cyril Bourgoin, WINDGLAZ’s founder, added, “Our generic turbine models from 1 to 24 Megawatts, and our ability to quickly adapt to the specificities and modelling interfaces of each system and each project, are key assets to support our customers, from tender phases to detailed design.

“We are glad to be joining the international DORIS Group and delivering integrated engineering offerings to our clients. Our positioning within DORIS will allow us to accelerate the development of our load calculation service, while guaranteeing the independence of our offer.”
