Alternative mechanical and electrical concept for offshore wind farms

摘要

A set (100) of marine wind turbines comprising: a plurality of wind turbines (102) adapted to be able to float in the water when they are located at a location away from the coast, each wind turbine comprising the plurality of wind turbines comprising a structure of support (110) adapted to be partially submerged in water when it is located in the location away from the coast, the support structure having a longitudinal axis; each wind turbine of the plurality of wind turbines being connected with at least one of the other wind turbines by means of cables (114), arranged such that respective cables extend from at least a first and second position different from each other along the longitudinal axis (111) of the wind turbine support structure to correspond at least to a first and second position different from each other along the longitudinal axis of each support structure of at least one of the respective other wind turbines; characterized in that the set of offshore wind turbines further comprises a system (180) for collecting energy and / or communications that interconnects each of the plurality of wind turbines, in which the system for collecting energy and / or communications it is at least partially included in at least some of the cables that interconnect the plurality of wind turbines, the energy collection and / or communications systems being adapted at least to collect, transport or distribute energy generated by the plurality of wind turbines.
