    I´ve weld that wind towers, and a lot of able support parts, stairs and the upper platform. Now i can see where they are.

    Thank you!

      All the powers from each wind turbine goes to a transforming station and then that runs the power to shore all done with underwater cables

    Super cool to see how they're installed, but oh my god this is my absolute worst nightmare. Water and turbines and not knowing how far down it goes is awful

    It may be unlikely, but I wonder how these structures could withstand a tsunami or other seismic event?
    Are we putting all our electrical generation eggs in one basket?

    • @guygillmore2970

      The North Sea is seismically inactive and a tsunami would go straight under - tsunamis are very small in deep water (but really, really fast); the damage occurs as they reach the beach: they slow down and get big.

    Looking at UK history, which is where I’m from, I remember reading about our great sea-faring nation when our vessels were all wind-powered.
    Our voyages were constantly imperilled by “be-calming” which meant days, sometimes weeks with no wind.
    Or, hull-crushing storms that threatened severe damage, where sails (turbines) could not function.
    Off-shore wind-farms are a useful development, but they are a “Fair-weather” optional power source, not an alternative to land-based, fuelled power generation.

      Becoming "Becalmed" was a term where a ship might find itself in the center of a very calm area of the ocean, and not able to sail out of that area, maybe being stuck there for a week or more. There are special secret books that show the areas where you might become becalmed, and what areas have the best wind speeds for getting to the port much faster. Secret because it was critical to get to a port sooner than the other guy, and thus like a trade secret for the owner of the information to get to a port the fastest.
      They are installing these wind farms in areas that typically have 15 MPH winds or more all winter long, and typically will have plenty of wind each day, due to the air being heated and moving from one location to another.
      In other words, people smarter than I am decided the best place to install these wind turbines, in very windy areas. The winter storms with 20 meter tall waves are something that they plan for, that is why the towers are so heavy, very thick steel, and very large diameter to support the tall tower in very high winds, with a lot of push towards one side.

    How do you route the connecting cables to the shore?
    Thank you.

    • @Kangenpower7
      @Kangenpower7 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They have several mono-piles with one wind turbine on each one. The turbines put out 13,000 volts (up to 33,000 volts on some turbines) to a monopile that does not have a turbine on it, but is located near the center of the wind farm. That monopile has connections to all the 13,000 volt lines to each string of wind turbines, and a "Export Cable" to the shoreline. That line can be in the 450,000 volt AC range, or on some systems they plan on using 450,000 VDC power, so there is less power loss on each mile of power line. Also if the frequency in one area is different than the others, there is no conflict with DC power.
      There are also some wind farms using both AC and DC power lines to the shore, and can load up either system depending on how much power is needed at the other end of each power line.
