据离岸能源网站1月25日报导，丹麦浮体式发电厂(FPP)项目获得了欧盟资助的MaRINET2项目的支持，并在西班牙的IHCantabria设施测试其混合浮式风浪平台。
在MaRINET2的资助下，FPP将在2021年进入IHCantabria研究院的测试池，公司计划在1:30比例的平台上进行几次测试，以验证数值模型。
FPP已经于2020年11月在奥尔堡大学进行了类似的测试，并获得了大量有用的数据，但据该公司称，IHCantabria拥有更大的测试池，可以进行更精确的测试，其多风扇系统为验证浮式风力设备提供了独特的工具。
FPP研发主管Sarah Thomas表示:“这是我们测试活动的下一阶段，以验证我们的技术负载和运动耦合数值模型。测试将把我们的浮动地基、集成的波浪能转换器与IHCantabria的多风扇推进器结合起来:这种无人机类型的设备利用软件在环(SIL)，可以模拟复杂的风流，并根据平台的运动进行调整。”
FPP正在开发的商业规模版本P80平台是一个浮式半潜平台，将搭载一个4-10MW的风力涡轮机，并将进一步支持2-3.6MW的波浪发电。
P80平台的锚定采用了标准的转塔系泊技术，该技术已在油气行业得到验证，目前仍在使用。
FPP的设计者表示，系泊系统、平台设计和波浪能量吸收的结合，可以确保平台360度旋转，以面对从各个方向来袭的波浪。

Floating Power Plant gets EU backing to continue floating wind and wave trials
Danish company Floating Power Plant (FPP) has secured support from the EU-funded MaRINET2 project to test its hybrid floating wind and wave platform at IHCantabria facilities in Spain.
With the MaRINET2 funding, FPP will have access to the basin at IHCantabria research institute for three weeks during 2021, where the company plans to perform several tests FPP already conducted similar tests at Aalborg University in November 2020, which produced a lot of useful data, but according to the company, IHCantabria has a larger pool that allows for more precise testing, with the multi-fan system that provides a unique tool for proving the floating wind equipment.
Sarah Thomas, head of R&D at FPP, said: “This is the next stage in our test campaign to validate our coupled numerical models for the loads and motions FPP is developing a commercial-scale version of the P80 platform, a floating semi-submersible platform that will host a single wind turbine from 4-10MW, that will further support 2-3.6MW of wave power.
The P80 platform is anchored by using a standard turret mooring technology that has been proven, and is still used, by the oil and gas industry.
The combination of the mooring system, the platform design and the high wave energy absorption ensures that the platform vanes 360 degrees in order to face the incoming waves, according to FPP.
