UK-based Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) has disclosed its plans to develop the world’s largest indoor infrastructure capable of deploying and testing next-generation offshore wind turbines. The test-rig will allow turbines to be examined onshore and indoors before being taken offshore, which will help to lower electricity costs and decrease technical risks associated with mass production. In addition to providing lower overhead costs, the initiative…
