Wind power generation began with towers placed on land, to later be placed in the sea in shallow areas and placed on the seabed, and now to be placed on floating platforms where the depth can be much greater than 100 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the surface of the sea, the winds are greater and more constant than on land, so the energy generated can be greater; but also the environmental conditions (water, salt, etc\u2026) are worse to which the turbines and towers are subjected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further from the coast, the depth of the sea is greater and the winds that circulate are also greater and more constant, so there are already wind turbines operating on floating platforms that adapt to the situation of the wind and the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Far from the coast, there is also the advantage that wind farms are not seen and coastal fishing is hardly affected. The drawback is the additional cost of the platforms to place the wind towers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huge wind turbines placed on floating platforms are being tested in several countries, taking advantage of technology that was developed for offshore oil drilling platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
