RWE AG’s renewable energy arm is working with a Spanish company to develop new technology for floating wind farms as utilities explore how to generate power further out at sea. The German company will work with Spain’s Saitec Offshore Technologies to build a turbine that sits atop a pair of floating, steel-reinforced concrete hulls.
The project marks an acceleration by the power generator into the budding business of making wind turbines float in deep waters that could be crucial in markets such as France, South Korea and Japan.
