Abstract

A method for constructing a wind turbine concrete floater including a central connector from which radial arms extend, the central connector carrying a central stability tower, and each arm carrying an outer stability tower. The method includes prefabricating the arms, central connector and at least parts of the stability towers, pre-assembling the central connector with one arm to form a primary pre-assembly, mounting temporary flotation devices onto the arms to provide additional buoyancy to them, floating the primary preassembly and floating the other arms of the floater, and assembling offshore said primary preassembly with said other arms.
