Transforming complex challenges into optimised solutions
Software solutions to optimise your design
Powered by supercomputing, advanced mathematics and AI
Trusted by industry experts
We help organisations facing complex engineering and operational challenges reduce costs, improve efficiency and de-risk projects, through optimisation software and expert support.
We work with each client to find an approach that suits their needs, whether that’s through our software products, software consultancy, or a bespoke solution built around their specific challenges.
Optimisation is at the core of everything we do. We combine specialist software, deep engineering expertise and advanced computing to help teams evaluate more options, understand trade-offs and confidently make decisions, faster than traditional approaches allow.
Our technology was proven in offshore wind, one of the most complex and high-stakes engineering environments there is. The same methods now help organisations tackle highly constrained problems across a range of industries.
Benefits
Reduce costs
Find savings manual methods miss
By searching a far larger solution space than manual methods allow, our technology finds configurations that traditional approaches miss, whether that means lower capital cost, lower operational cost, or both. You get options, not guesswork
Accelerate projects
Increased efficiency, less manual work
We identify which tasks in your workflow can be automated, then deliver that automation through our software or custom-built tools, freeing engineers from repetitive work so their time goes on judgement calls only a person can make, speeding up the project.
De-risk projects
Understand risk before it becomes a problem
We use scenario modelling to test how a project performs under different market conditions, from energy prices to supply costs, so risks are understood and mitigated early rather than discovered late, helping more projects reach a final investment decision.
How we can help
Every project is different and requires a unique approach. We work with you to understand your needs and find the right fit, whether that’s our digital tools, hands-on expert support, or a combination of both.
Digital Tools
Optimisation software, built by offshore wind engineers
Kinewell has a software tool that can support every stage of the offshore wind project lifecycle.
Our suite of tools is built by a team who bring together optimisation, offshore wind engineering and software development expertise. Powered by supercomputing, advanced mathematics and AI, each tool rapidly evaluates a vast number of configurations to find optimised solutions, giving your team fast answers so they can focus on the decisions that need a human eye.
Available through flexible licence options and tailored to fit your project and your team.
KLOC
Optimise your inter-array cable layout to save around 20% of cable CAPEX

Shaped around your needs
However you want to work with us, from licensing a tool to briefing us on a problem we haven’t solved before, our own engineers are behind every option.
Use it
Build optimisation capability in-house
Licence our software on flexible terms, with full training and ongoing support, so your own team runs the analysis and owns the results.
Solve it
Access our tools through Kinewell consultancy.
Our team applies our software suite and offshore wind expertise as an extension of yours, from a single study to ongoing support during busy periods.
Integrate it
Connect our suite with your existing tools and workflows.
Link our tools to your systems and data through APIs, bringing optimisation into your wider engineering and design workflow.
Build it
Develop something new, together
When the problem doesn’t fit an existing tool, our engineers build one with you, extending our technology or creating something new from scratch.
Expert Support
Our team, applied to your project
When you need more than software, or you’re not ready to bring a tool in-house, our engineers and optimisation specialists work directly on your project.
That covers:
engineering consultancy
applying our tools to real project data
building custom optimisation tools
software due diligence
data science analysis
speed up complex calculations with super computing.
Why Optimisation Matters
In every industry, the pressure is on to do more with less: less time, less cost, less environmental impact. Whether it’s energy, infrastructure, logistics or finance, organisations are grappling with increasingly complex systems, tighter margins and higher expectations for performance.
Optimisation provides a powerful answer. By applying intelligent algorithms and data-driven decision-making, it unlocks better outcomes across a wide range of challenges, from routing and scheduling to network design and asset planning.
Our own methods were forged in offshore wind, where the stakes and the complexity are about as high as they get. That grounding in a genuinely hard real-world problem is what makes them work everywhere else too.
Why Kinewell
Built by people who've done the job
Our engineers and optimisation specialists have delivered projects across offshore wind and beyond, so every tool and every engagement reflects real project constraints, not just theoretical performance.
Faster, deeper analysis
Our super computing power allows us to search a far larger solution space than manual methods allow, in a fraction of the time, so nothing gets ruled out before it’s been properly tested.
A trusted partner
