Extraordinary contra-rotating floating wind turbines to begin testing

The 19-m prototype will be tested at AF’s Envinronmental Base in Vats, nestled deep in the hills, on the banks of a fjord, off a fjord, off a fjord, off a fjord, on the heartbreakingly beautiful southeast Norwegian coast. Right among Slartibartfast’s greatest and most fiddly work.

While there’s no timetable laid out for this test, the company says its next prototype will be a much larger 1.5-MW pilot, scheduled to begin testing in early 2025 – and it hopes to launch a commercial 24-MW turbine before 2030, which would be the world’s largest offshore turbine by a decent margin if it launched today.
