Abstract

A foundation () for a structure such as an off-shore wind turbine. The foundation () comprises a body () having a lateral surface () and a distal end () for insertion into a soil (). At least a region of the lateral surface () forms a first electrode. A second electrode () is provided on the lateral surface () of the body () and is electrically insulated from the first electrode. The body () further comprises a spacing formation () for forming a gap () between the second electrode () and the soil () when the body () is inserted into the soil (). In use, an electric potential may be established between the electrodes to induce electro-osmosis in the soil for allowing the foundation to be installed more easily. The polarity of the electric potential may also be reversed for stabilising the foundation.
