Vattenfall Pioneers Innovative Offshore Wind Foundations

摘要

The first commercial-scale suction bucket jacket foundation has been installed at Vattenfall's 11-turbine European Off-shore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC) in Scotland. The pioneering foundation, which weighs 1,800 tonnes, was installed in late March within only 15 hours, aided by a 25,000-tonne floating crane, the Asian Hercules III.
