Wind Alliance Technology Award

Messe Husum and Deutsche Messe three companies nominate wind Alliance Technology Award Husum / Hannover, Germany for the 5th September 2012. The companies Hochtief were solutions, Kenersys Europe SkyWind by an independent jury for the International Alliance of wind technology Award nomination. The award ceremony takes place in the framework of the international trade fair HUSUM WindEnergy on 19 September in Husum. The selection criteria of the four-member jury of experts also the ecological, economic, and social benefits included the submitted products and solutions in addition to the innovation. The applications were wide ranging,”said jury member Dr. Klaus Rave, President of the global wind energy Council (GWEC) and Vice President of the European wind energy Association (EWEA). They ranged from new investment concepts and techniques to storage solutions and measurement systems.” Sound protection for sea animals: the new formation procedure of Hochtief and HERRENKNECHT partner Hochtief solutions AG, represented by the centres of excellence for Offshore wind and tunnel construction in Hamburg and Essen, and the HERRENKNECHT AG have together the Foundation of offshore drilling”(OFD ) process developed. The OFD procedures, the founding elements are inside drilled out and brought into the subsoil use of its own weight.

This much larger mono pile diameter than previously possible and more powerful wind turbines in heterogeneous geological conditions can be installed. Compared to the conventional method of pile-driving the new procedure the sound emissions also significantly reduces also the harbour porpoises in the North Sea and Baltic Sea are affected by for example. “Flexible: Kenersys platform strategy has the Kenersys GmbH in Munster with the one-world-turbine” developed a standardized platform for wind turbines, which meet most wind -, network -, and climatic conditions worldwide. Based on a single technology platform, parameters such as the size of the rotor, hub height or the generator rating be adapted to the respective wind conditions depending on the location.
