The world's first full-scale floating wind turbine is on stream. Hywind is anchored 10 kilometres off Karmøy, in south-western Norway.
The windmill was towed to its final destination on 8 June 2009.

The Hywind pilot is to be tested over a two-year period. It combines technology from both the wind power and oil and gas sectors, and draws on expertise gained from StatoilHydro’s long offshore experience.
