Swedish outfit SeaTwirl is to sell electricity to Norwegian power company Haugaland Kraft from its S2 floating wind turbine, if the project is built at a site near Haugesund in Norway.
SeaTwirl said the Haugesund site is one of the main alternatives for the installation of the 1MW S2.

It added that several sites are being evaluated, but “Haugesund is a site that is well suited for the installation of SeaTwirl S2”.
SeaTwirl chief executive Gabriel Strangberg said: “SeaTwirl S2 is the full-scale unit with a turbine effect of 1MW that we are developing and that we are planning to install in the sea in 2020.
“Through this power deal with Haugaland Kraft, we’re taken another step towards realizing that plan.”
