  • I wanna climb it !

  • Would be interesting to see how they deal with the gyroscopic effect as it bobs up and down and around. The blades have enough stresses without adding to them.

  • How nice. If this is the case, the wind turbine can be transferable because of its floating ability. What a brilliant idea. No one has ever think of that. There were wind turbines onshore but this one is another excellent innovation. Fantastic.

  • Hello, Liked the video. On Earth Day I won a green design contest for my home energy system the RoofMill. Have a look at my home wind turbine videos of installing and running Hybrid Energy Systems. Friends and Subscribers Wanted. Later ,

    Peace, Sam

  • kabels on the seafloor brings the power to land.

  • That's fascinating but how does the power get to shore?

  • @tibblea1 :underwater cables.

  • They should replaced the normal smooth turbine blades to tubercles tip blades called WHALEPOWER, it is more efficient in low wind gust & can handle The Atlantic sea conditions without effecting power production.

  • wtf is this POS... VAWT > HAWT. especially a maglev vawt.

  • notice how it doesn't move a bit LOL

  • They lock the gears until it is ready to go. If those blades were moving before they had it anchored they would be in for trouble.

  • Let's not forget to say a prayer for the 535 sunken wind turbines that made this possible.

  • 1) this is totally awesome

    2) Will it give enough energy to supply the boats?

    3) We shouldn't fill the oceans with it though. We will find problems later on.

  • .

    it will generate more than 6 million kWh every year .

    .

  • one hurrican its destroyed

  • Hurricane in Norway? I don't think so..

  • error. it's constructed to handle with every storm in that region where it's installed.

  • @bdyan1 there are no hurricans in norway.

  • I hope your joking... good lord if your not... wow... talk about an ignorant shit.

  • lol...use up wind supply?!? lol..go die..you're wasting oxygen supply

  • youre an idiot oh my god

  • Comment removed

  • Your attempt at humor was pretty poor. I just called it like I saw it. Being that your comment is on youtube leads me to believe that more often than not, a comment like this is true and moronic in nature... So ... ya... internet arguing ... awesome!

  • If you don't find this funny you suck! lol

  • wow that thing is huge

    wonder what effect it will have on wind and weather when employed in a massive scale
