Shell plans floating wind project off the Norwegian coast
Shell will join forces with renewable energy developers to build an £15.7m floating wind project off the coast of Norway by next year having increased its share of the project from an initial one third stake to almost two thirds, alongside German renewables company Innogy and Denmark's Stiesdal Offshore Technologies. The new company plans to test new wind power technology six miles off the Norwegian coast by 2020. A single 3.2MW turbine will be secured to a tubular steel framework suspended almost 200 feet beneath the sea surface and towed to the test site in the northern part of the North Sea. Once in place the framework will be moored to the seabed with three anchor lines and connected to the electrical grid.
