A CONCRETE-BASED FLOATING TECHNOLOGY

We have developed and patented a highly innovative concrete-based floating platform for the safest and most efficient installation of large wind turbines in deep waters. The proposed structure belongs to the “Semisubmersible” typology, with stabilization by floatability. The invention consists of a hollow concrete structure with an equilateral triangular base, to facilitate transportation & installation with the turbine already installed in the port. This design provides the structure with a great resilience capacity to dynamic sea pressures and a great naval stability with negligible oscillations during transportation, installation and operation.

 

Another unique advantage of our technology is that it is compatible with fabrication methods widely used in the ports industry that will enable the construction of a full-size platform in a matter of a few weeks, instead of several months, without the need for special infrastructures. Therefore, it can be built very efficiently in most ports in any location all over the world.
