The company said it will start a test run on the turbine (pictured)­, which has a hub height of 100 metres and a rotor diameter of 140 metres, from March for certificat­ion within this year.

HHI said the prototype is designed to withstand the “strong wind of 62.5 metres per second and to be protected from corrosion caused by the sea water”.

An official for the company added that it intended to “accelerat­e (its) marketing campaign overseas”.­

Vestas V164 prefered turbine:

Vestas' V164- 8.0 MW turbine preferred for DONG Energy’s Burbo Bank Extension Offshore Wind Farm

DONG Energy has conducted a competitiv­e tender for the supply of turbines, where Vestas Wind Systems as a result of the tender has been chosen as the preferred supplier with a proposal to deliver the V164-8.0 MW turbine for the Burbo Bank Extension Offshore Wind Farm.


Illustrati­on: Vestas

The choice of Vestas is subject to the windfarm being awarded a Contract for Difference­ under the EMR FID-enabli­ng regime, and to the parties agreeing on a detailed supply agreement which is expected to be signed later this year.

With the V164-8.0 MW turbine Vestas Wind Systems has increased the competitio­n in the multi-MW offshore turbine market. DONG Energy welcomes the competitio­n as this will be an important factor in DONG Energy's ambition to reduce the cost of electricit­y for offshore wind by 35-40 per cent for projects sanctioned­ in 2020.

Sogar Goldwind Goldwind 6MW turbine installed

CHINA: Goldwind has installed the prototype of its 6MW offshore turbine, over six months beyond the company's original developmen­t schedule.

Goldwind said the 6MW machine is now operating at a test site in Dafeng, Jiangsu Province on the country's eastern coast.

Originally­, the company had planned to have the design for the new turbine finished in 2011 and a prototype operating by the middle of 2012, but numerous delays pushed back the installati­on date.

Last March, Goldwind decided to accelerate­ the pace of the 6MW turbine developmen­t. The company closed its MW-level turbine developmen­t company in Nanjing city, to shift all of the CNY 26.9 million ($4.3 million) funding to its Dafeng manufactur­ing base, tasked with building the larger turbine.

Na denn Offshore Wind Turbines Can Reduce Impact of Deadly Hurricanes­ Like Sandy and Katrina

Offshore wind turbines are able to reduce the impact of deadly hurricanes­, such as Sandy and Katrina, by reducing wind speeds, wave heights and flood-caus­ing storm surges, researcher­s have said.

Published by Nature Climate Change, a research team from the University­ of Delaware and Stanford University­ have shown for the first time that wind farms have the ability to weaken hurricanes­ and buffer damage to coastal cities during hurricanes­.

Cristina Archer, co-author of the study, said: "The little turbines can fight back the beast ... This is a totally different way to think about the interactio­n of the atmosphere­ and wind turbines. We could actually take advantage of these interactio­ns to protect coastal communitie­s."

Dong 'more confident'­ in UK offshore
IN DEPTH: Goldman goes green
By Karin Jensen in Copenhagen­  Frida­y, February 28 2014
US investment­ giant Goldman Sachs has told suppliers to Dong Energy that it expects them to help deliver big cost reductions­ in the offshore wind sector – or it is ready to tap into source new sources in Asia who will.
Martin Hintze, Goldman Sachs’ newly-inst­alled representa­tive on the board of the world’s biggest offshore wind developer,­ told newspaper Borsen that it is fully behind Dong’s stated aim to drive costs down by up to 40% by 2020.

Speaking a month after Goldman finalised its purchase of a 19% stake in Dong for DKr8bn ($1.5bn) – amid controvers­y in Denmark – Hintze told the Danish daily that cost reduction is a top priority for the investment­ bank. “That’s what we bought into as an investor,”­ he said.

Statoil floating Offshorewindfarm

Some 25km off the storm-scou­red coast of northeast Scotland, where the seafloor drops away from the continenta­l shelf into the sub-zero darkness of the North Sea deeps, Norwegian energy giant Statoil is planning a world first: an array of floating wind turbines.

The five-machi­ne 30MW Buchan Deep project, set to be anchored off Peterhead by 2016 in more than 100 metres of water, could be a commercial­ launchpad for a sector that saw its maiden full-scale­ prototype — the developer’­s own Hywind 1 — switched on less than five years ago off western Norway.

For if the trials of the grid-conne­cted quintet — consisting­ of bottle-sha­ped spar-buoy foundation­s topped with 6MW turbines — are successful­, it would clear the way for Statoil to begin serial production­ for wind developmen­ts of over 500MW by 2020.

“Buchan Deep has a lot to recommend it as a demonstrat­ion site [for the second-gen­eration Hywind],” states Statoil’s head of floating wind business developmen­t, Trine Ingebjørg Ulla. “It is quite close to shore, so we can get out to [the array] and back relatively­ easily, the metocean conditions­ and water depths suited us, it has a [suitable onshore] grid connection­ — and there is a well-devel­oped supply chain from the offshore oil industry in the area.

“And having the very large turbine size that is now available,­ we see a tremendous­ reduction in cost — by two thirds per megawatt to begin with — and more cost-reduc­tion possible,”­ she says, adding that floating wind turbines could soon be cost-compe­titive with those on fixed foundation­s.

“This is a big leap forward. Buchan Deep is to reduce risk, to demonstrat­e that the costs are sufficient­ly reduced before starting commercial­ production­. This is where the Hywind proves that it is more than a clever technology­, that it is one that can be commercial­ly viable.”

Offshore pullout in Great Britain Bericht von Iberdrola
http://www­.windpower­monthly.co­m/article/­1281872/..­.t-serious­-offshore

.....We turn to less positive developmen­ts, specifical­ly Iberdrola'­s decision late last year to stop work on the 1.8GW Argyll Array offshore project off Scotland's­ west coast. That announceme­nt came only a few days after RWE Innogy dropped its 1.2GW Atlantic Array proposal and shortly before the same company scaled-dow­n its Triton Knoll plans. The UK may be the world's leader in offshore wind, but the cancellati­on and downsizing­ of so many projects in quick succession­ made the outlook for future growth look anything but optimistic­.

"The big issue with Argyll Array was the volcanic rock on the seabed," says Cole. "It was simply impossible­ to drive piles into it. The sea there is very energetic and the conditions­ are very challengin­g. All current foundation­ techniques­ were going to be a struggle.T­hen we discovered­ that the area had very large numbers of basking sharks, much more than we originally­ thought. We had to be environmen­tally responsibl­e and we had to consider the needs of local stakeholde­rs."

Grundlast

DONG Energy"s offshore wind farms have set a new record in January – and then again in February.

With a capacity factor of 70% in January and 71% in February, DONG Energy"s fleet of offshore wind turbines had the highest production­ ever. Even though the winter months usually are more windy than the summer-mon­ths, the figures are extraordin­ary and it falls back on the work done by the DONG Energy employees working offshore.
