How to build an offshore wind farm

In the summer of 2002, the world’s largest offshore wind farm was constructed at the Danish west coast. Horns Rev facilities were placed 14-20 km into the North Sea and represent the first phase of a large-scale Danish effort to produce non-polluting electricity from offshore wind turbines

A detailed planning is required for this kind of projects. This is the process:

1. Rotor blades


2. Turbine foundations



3. Turbine assembling


4. Rotor transport


5. ...and a final touch.
