DeepWind an innovative wind turbine concept for offshore

A European granted project called DeepWind was launched in autumn 2010 under FP7 Future Emerging Technologies. The 4-years project is described and preliminary results from the different work packages are presented. The concept of an offshore floating vertical axis wind turbines (DeepWind) was presented in [1]. The vertical axis wind turbine consists of a Darrieus rotor whose tower is extended below the sea level, in order to act as spar buoy. This paper informs on new developments within the FP7 project (www.deepwind.eu ) of the novel concept and preliminary results from the different work packages of DeepWind are presented.
