The Swedish Energy-tech company SeaTwirl are today launching a new turbine with two- blades based upon its unique patented technology with vertical-axis wind turbine on a rotating SPAR foundation.
SeaTwirl has from the start in 2012 been developing a floating wind turbine specifically designed for the deep-water seas. The design philosophy was to remove hurdles in deploying floating wind power while maintaining robustness, reliability, and a competitive cost level. With a purpose to enable floating wind wherever it is needed, SeaTwirl's wind turbines are smaller and can be installed and maintained with significantly less infrastructure than conventional turbines. It is therefore a clear ambition to meet a demand that is normally difficult to electrify - and to reduce the so called hard-to-abate emissions.
The main difference with this new two-blade design is that the turbine essentially becomes a two-dimensional structure that can be assembled flat on the ground without large cranes, as well as significantly reducing weight and maintenance requirements. SeaTwirl's design has always been without pitch- or yaw-systems, with a low center of gravity, standardized drivetrain components, and easy access for maintenance.
"We are excited to finally bring our two-blade turbine to the market and showcase its beneficial capabilities. Our ambition has always been to design away hurdles to build out floating wind power and this design enables a "flat-pack assembly" where also smaller yards can be used", says Johan Sandberg, CEO of SeaTwirl.
