A method for constructing a floater for a floatable wind energy power plant includes providing a first pre-assembled part with at least one first connection arrangement, providing a second pre-assembled part with at least one second connection arrangement, arranging the at least one first connection arrangement of the first pre-assembled part proximate to the at least one second connection arrangement of the second pre-assembled part so as to form a connection site which includes at least a part of the at least one first connection arrangement and at least a part of the at least one second connection arrangement, sealingly arranging an enclosure about the connection site so as to seal the enclosure against an ingress of water, and connecting the first pre-assembled part and the second pre-assembled part at the connection site. Each of the first pre-assembled part and the second pre-assembled part are floatable.

Wind energy power plant and method of construction

A support of deep caisson type having a longitudinal axis, for floating installation in a body of water and provided with mooring lines for anchoring to a seabed, has a lower portion in the body of water having a weight element, an upper portion that supports a platform above a water surface, and an extended portion in an area between the upper portion and the lower portion. The extended portion has one or more internal storage chambers and one or more ballast chambers. The storage chambers are arranged closer to the longitudinal axis than the ballast chambers.
