According to information on the company&#8217;s website, the platform is capable of withstanding winds of up to 79.8 meters per second and waves up to 30 meters high.<\/p>\n\n<p>On the other hand, the platform&#8217;s floating base, built with high-performance modular concrete <strong>reduces system costs <\/strong>and also through a combination of single-point anchoring and composite materials, manages to decrease the system&#8217;s load and the impact of the sea. In addition, pre-stressed tensioned ropes are implemented to distribute the gravity load of the tower, allowing for a lighter structure.<\/p>\n\n<p>The total capacity of the platform is 16.6 megawatts, and it is estimated that it can generate up to 54 million kilowatt hours per year. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/mingyangsmartenergy_mingyang-oceanx-floatingwindturbine-activity-7217577988643545088-lK8W?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">can generate up to 54 million kilowatt hours per year, enough to power approximately 30,000 homes, according to Mingyang&#8217;s claims.<\/a><\/strong>enough to <strong>power approximately 30,000 homes<\/strong>, according to Mingyang.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Records with giant wind turbines<\/h2>\n\n<p>In the last year, the company has made significant progress, highlighting the presentation of a new offshore wind turbine model with a capacity of 22 MW in October 2023, with development plans between 2024 and 2025.
