For its rock anchor (Swift Anchor) idea for offshore renewables, notably tidal energy and floating wind technologies, SCHOTTEL Marine Technologies has obtained a statement of feasibility from the classification society DNV.
According to Schottel Marine, DNV's statement of practicality validates the idea and creates the possibility of cost savings and a faster global adoption of renewable energy.
With further reference to DNV-ST-0164 for tidal turbines and DNV-ST-0119 for floating wind turbine structures, the technical review used the industry-recognized service specification DNV-SE-0163 Certification of tidal turbine arrays to detail and clarify the certification activities and facilitate achieving compliance.
