Installation Service
The towing of the WindBarge with its turbine can be carried out with standard tugboats; The WindBarge will be towed integrated with its turbine to its wind farm location without the use of expensive installation vessels. No specialized vessels are needed. The anchor point, mooring line and electric cable will be installed prior to the installation. This single line mooring makes the installation process simple and fast. It also allows for simple detachment, tow-to-port maintenance, decommissioning and removal.
Smaller environmental footprint than any other offshore floating wind turbine
The WindBarge will have a minimal footprint at the sea bottom as only one anchor is needed. The installation process will have low noise levels, and the installation at the sea bed will have a significant reduced impact on the nearby sea life.
