    摘要: An energy storage system includes a crane and a plurality of blocks, where the crane is operable to move blocks from a lower elevation to a higher elevation (via stacking of the blocks) to store electrical energy as potential energy of the blocks, and then operable to move blocks from a higher elevation to a lower elevation (via unstacking of the blocks) to generate electricity based on the kinetic energy of the block when lowered (e.g., by gravity). The energy storage system can, for example, store electricity generated from solar power as potential energy in the stacked blocks during daytime hours when solar power is available, and can convert the potential energy in the stacked blocks into electricity during nighttime hours when solar energy is not available, and deliver the converted electricity to the power grid.

    摘要: A method of handling a wind turbine component (54) for assembly or maintenance, comprises coupling one or more unmanned air vehicles (20) with the wind turbine component (54) so that at least a portion of the weight of the wind turbine component (54) can be supported and lifted by the one or more unmanned air vehicles (20). The method further comprises coupling one or more cranes (50) with the wind turbine component (54) so that at least a portion of the weight of the wind turbine component (54) can be supported and lifted by the one or more cranes (50). The method further comprises controlling the one or more unmanned air vehicle (20) and crane (50) in coordination to lift the wind turbine component (54) and manoeuvre said component (54) with respect to a wind turbine (52).

    摘要: A subsea crane system and a method of installing equipment using the same. In one example, the subsea crane system a plurality of winches positioned adjacent to a seabed and each of the winches has an associated winch line. A buoyancy tank is mechanically connected to each of the winches by the winch lines. A lift line extends from the buoyancy tank and an engagement device is provided at the end of the lift line.

    摘要: The invention relates to an arrangement for installing cables on outer surfaces of crane structures (1), the arrangement comprising means (9) for routing and fastening cables to said surfaces. These means consist of T profiles (9) fastened at the stem part (10) of the T profile to the outer surface (1) of the crane structure, the upper part (11) of the T profile on top of and transverse to the stem part of the T profile being at a distance from the surface of the crane and substantially parallel to this surface, whereby the T profile together with the surface of the crane provide cable conduits (12) for the cables, which are open from the sides.
