Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/064962
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A floating substructure made of a steel structure with ballast tanks provides buoyancy and stability to support a wind turbine generator in deep waters.

Different types of anchors can be used depending on the soil characteristic of the bed of the body of water.
