A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Mounting equipment on wind turbine structures
An external equipment support system for a wind turbine, the system comprising a hub 10 encircling or coextensive with a tower or transition piece of the wind turbine and surrounding a central axis of the tower or transition piece, the hub defining at least one docking bay; and at least one support module 24 engageable with mounting formations of the docking bay and cantilevered from the hub. The hub may comprise multiple docking bays spaced apart angularly around the central axis and multiple support modules are engageable with the mounting formations of the respective docking bays. The hub may have a polygonal shape with each of the docking bays corresponding with a respective side of the polygonal shape. Preferably, each support module comprises a platform that may support electrolyser equipment or a solar array. A method of supporting equipment externally on a wind turbine is also claimed.
