Tugdock’s Tugdock Submersible Platform (TSP) has been awarded the ‘Statement of Feasibility’ from DNV. This endorsement acknowledges the TSP as a technology with applications across multiple markets, including floating offshore wind, vessel drydocking, and decommissioning.- Category: Product News
In wind turbine construction, both new installations and repowering projects must optimise technology for maximum energy yield while ensuring materials meet holistic life cycle assessments. Aluminium recycler Speira and construction company Bayards advocate aluminium as a more environmentally friendly alternative for the nacelles of modern wind turbines. Compared to conventional materials like glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GRP) or steel, aluminium offers clear advantages for the environment and efficiency.
