Alstom has been developing its floating Haliade 150-6<br />
MW based on a Tension stabilised concept. The most<br />
suitable configurations are TLB for water depths between<br />
50m to 80m, or TLP for water depths between<br />
80m to 300m.<br />
Alstom R&D activities started with the Azimut Offshore<br />
Wind Energy 2020 Project [2010-2013], jointly with<br />
Acciona & Gamesa, and with an objective to develop<br />
know-how for constructing large scale marine wind turbines<br />
and develop 15 MW floating offshore wind turbines<br />
overcoming financial and technical challenges.<br />
A partnership between b_Tech and the MIT has been<br />
developing know how to model tension leg platforms<br />
(TLP’s) and developing robust and reliable tools to<br />
design TLPs. A grant has been awarded by the US<br />
Department of Energy to work on energy cost reduction<br />
through advanced control strategies for energy<br />
improvement.<br />
