A record of the construction of Hibiki, a Next-Generation Floating Offshore Wind Turbine System

In order to promote the introduction of offshore wind power in Japan, it is necessary to develop technology for floating offshore wind power systems as well as fixed-bottom offshore wind power systems.
NEDO develops the low-cost floating offshore wind power system, ”Hibiki”, which can be installed in offshore areas where the water depth is about 50 meters, relatively shallow for floating-type system.
The Hibiki has been installed in Hibiki-nada area off the coast of Kitakyushu city and is under demonstration.
