Dropsafe designs and installs custom net for offshore renewable energy project
The development team at Formosa 1 Offshore Wind Farm has adopted Dropsafe technology across 20 Siemens Gamesa turbines at Taiwan’s first operational offshore wind project.
Formosa 1 has taken an industry-leading approach, having Dropsafe engineer a bespoke net design, made of SUS 316 Japanese stainless steel. The nets, each measuring more than 20 metres long, have been installed between the external landing platform and the tower of the SWT-6.0-154 turbines to prevent potential dropped objects from falling into the sea.
