摘要： Renewable Energy (RE) sources are already one of the cheapest sources of energy available today but are variable and infirm, and the open ocean offers many opportunities to generate energy by using various disparate sources and methods on a floating station. These energy stations converting renewable energy including solar, ocean currents, wind, waves and batteries and hydrogen to store energy and provide sufficient stable power and energy as required and available most of the hours. The invention claimed here is a system to capture energy from a combination of wind, solar and ocean currents, along with batteries for storage and later use and hydrogen creation, storage and use for generation. In addition, apparatus is described that provide mechanical stability and resilience in deep open seas and reliably survive storms and hurricanes. Also described is a method for overcoming intermittency of ensuring continuous and stable energy export from the station, and finally methods to continually operate RE station in the open seas even during storms and hurricanes and survive the high winds and waves.

摘要： Framework structure (70) and method for modular construction of an offshore framework structure comprising frameworks (50) with a first bar (51) functioning as a floating body, a second bar (52), with two posts (53) for substantially parallel support of the bars (51, 52) and two bands (54) for tensioning the framework (50). A connection element (55) is arranged at each end of the bars (51, 52), each of which has a single flange (56) for attaching a single bar (51, 52) to the connection element (55). In the connection elements (55), receiving areas (57) are arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction (61) of the bars (51, 52) for attaching the posts (53). Further, the connection elements (55) have securing means (58) for securing bands (54) provided with tensioning devices (60) in such a way that the framework (50) can be held in shape or diagonally tensioned by means of the tensioning devices (60). The connection elements (55) are constructed with respect to the longitudinal direction (61) of the bars (51, 52) in such a way that an extension (62) is configured on one side and a holder (66) can be arranged on the opposite side so that the extension (62) of a connection element (55) of a framework (50) can be joined with the holder (66) of another connection element (55) of a further framework (50).
