How Are Offshore Wind Turbines & Towers Installed?
Offshore wind farms usually consist of multiple sets of wind turbines, towers and blades, so how are offshore wind turbines, towers and blades installed?
Lifting and Installation Process of Offshore Wind Turbines, Towers and Blades
The lifting and installation of wind turbines in offshore wind farms usually needs to consider factors such as water depth and large wind surge, etc. Careful planning and preparation, installation facilities preparation and calibration must be carried out to ensure the safe and smooth installation of wind turbines, towers, blades, etc. During the lifting, installation of wind turbines, on-site lifting and installation personnel should monitor the wind speed in real time, carry out lifting and installation at the best lifting time, and each lifting and installation process should be rigorous and meticulous, so as to complete the lifting and installation work of multi-sections towers, wind turbines, blades and other equipment and facilities successively.
Generally, the lifting and installation process of offshore wind turbines, towers and blades is as follows:
Ship Berthing of Wind Turbines, Blades and Towers
Lifting and Installation of Bottom Tower is Completed
Turning Over, Lifting and Installing of the Second Tower Section
The Third Section of the Tower is Lifted and Installed in Place
Wind Tower has been Installed
Lifting and Installation of Wind Turbine
Wind Turbine Blades are Assembled on Ground
The Wind Turbine Blades are Lifted and Connected with the Wind Turbine
