Furthermore, MPS is also working on pre-commercial projects in Gran Canaria and Portugal to prove and further optimise the technology.
Earlier this year, the company joined forces with Plataforma Oceánica de Canarias (PLOCAN) to deploy the PelaFlex floating offshore wind platform at a grid-connected test site on the southeast coast of Gran Canaria.

In October last year, MPS and WavEC, one of the co-managers of the Aguçadoura test site offshore Viana do Castelo, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on deploying the modular floating platform at the Portuguese test site.
MPS has also partnered with Simply Blue Group to develop a project proposal for the Innovation and Targeted Oil and Gas (INTOG) leasing round in Scotland , which involves deploying six wind turbines on the MPS floating platform in water depths between 60 and 100 metres as part of a 100 MW project.
