About W’wave

W’wave is the wind pioneer in Concentrated Wind Power solutions, a new technology that will decisively support the wind industry and world in its quest to fight Climate Change and make renewable energy more competititve.

We are specialised in designing, sourcing and manufacturing, installing, and developing Concentrated Wind Power Systems (in short, our WindWave), a new technology to Optimize Wind in wind farms so that its turbines can harvest more energy at lower cost, empowering our customers and partners to construct more powerful wind farms siting turbines closer to each other.

The technology is constantly developing to offer our customers and collaborators better product features and a better collaboration experience. Thanks to our involvement with all the wind energy industry’s value chain, it will be installed across the globe.

The early origins of W’wave date back to 2014 in Brazil. Brazil is a country with extraordinary wind resource and one particularity: Wind blows in a very constant direction. On the other hand, the natural wind site characteristics clearly influence siting of wind turbines and the quality of the wind resource (as an example, this is the reason why turbines are often sited on top of mountains, benefitting from wind’s acceleration in those areas). Manuel Alcocer, W’wave CEO & Co-founder, who was working by then in the wind industry in Brazil, realized the potential to optimize wind by modifying artificially the site and started researching the state of the art in his spare time. This is how he got to know Peter Grabau, W’wave CTO & Co-founder, a veteran of the Danish wind industry, who had held important management positions in the innovation departments of large corporations of the wind industry.

At one point in time, in front of what they considered to be an enormous technology and business opportunity, they decide to quit their corporate jobs to develop full-time a new market for their innovative hardware.

In the way, they got alongside extraordinary partners and professionals from the wind and aeronautical industries that would accompany them in the journey: Pablo Sánchez de Cuns, Alex Domene, Albert Martí, Dr Mathias Mier are to be credited for the early development of W’wave, the pioneer of Concentrated Wind Power, a new technology to Optimize Wind in wind farms for the benefit of the whole wind industry value chain and, ultimately, Society.
