The design phase is expected to wrap up by late 2026, with construction and operations scheduled to continue until the end of 2029.<\/p>\n
The initiative is led by SeaTwirl, as the technical coordinator, and the University College Cork as the project coordinator. The consortium behind the demonstration project also includes EDP – Cnet Centre for New Energy Technologies SA, Greenov, Next Fabrication, Sub Connected AB, Sowento, RSTER, PNO, Bureau Veritas, and Zorlu Enerji.<\/p>\n
The European financing comes under the EU program \u201cDemonstrations of innovative floating wind concepts.\u201d SeaTwirl\u2019s project was named a winner in May.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the legal framework in place, we can now kick-off the project and begin the exciting journey to install and demonstrate a full scale SeaTwirl turbine,\u201d said Johan Sandberg, CEO of SeaTwirl.(EUR 1 = USD 1.165)[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
