Project Abstract

An innovative solution for the Irish floating wind industry is proposed, by bringing to the floating wind sector a novel dual helical turbine on a single platform, which not only maximises the use of materials but also has performance benefits. In this project it will be designed, manufactured and experimentally tested (both structurally and in real operational conditions).
