Gran Canaria

A research project investigating the feasibility of installing wind turbines within the arches of the Juncal Viaduct in Gran Canaria to generate renewable energy.

A self-installing telescopic wind turbine and foundation project that successfully delivered the world's first bottom-fixed offshore wind turbine installed without heavylift vessels. The project developed innovative installation methods using concrete self-floating gravity-based structures and self-lifting telescopic towers.

Executive arm of the European Union, responsible for proposing legislation, enforcing EU laws, and approving or rejecting member state state‑aid schemes.

Offshore wind turbine technology

A self-lifting concrete tower that can extend vertically, allowing the wind turbine to be assembled onshore and then raised to operational height at sea.

A technology used to generate electricity for communities as part of the changing power infrastructure due to alternative energy adoption.

A wireless control system developed by ALE to remotely operate offshore lifting and installation equipment from a specialized vessel.
