Application of Wind Rider Flexible Wind Turbine Tower for Floating Foundation and its Self-Alignment Function

The application of wind rider self rotating tower on a floating foundation helps to reduce the large load and reduce LCOE costs. The system provides stable restoring moments with features of wind facing, zero torque at base, multiple mooring fairlead for floater stability.

A FLEXIBLE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR LARGE WIND TURBINE

Presented in OMAE2024, June 9-14, 2024, Singapore EXPO. The paper introduces a novel support system for offshore wind turbines that fundamentally redefines the paradigm of wind load management.
