World's first floating wind turbine
June 6, 2009
Right now, the world's first floating wind turbine is being towed out to sea off the coast of Norway. It's a 2.3 MW machine, the Hywind, made by Statoil Hydro, and it can be moored in waters up to 700 metres deep.
Just imagine the global potential, if this works out well....
