Description: This layer shows the Maine Aqua Ventus project New England Aqua Ventus I, as located in the test site. Maine Aqua Ventus I, GP, LLC, is leading a demonstration project called New England Aqua Ventus I, a 12 MW floating offshore wind pilot project to develop a renewable energy source off Maine’s shores. Project participants include Cianbro Corporation, the University of Maine, and DCNS. This demonstration project will deploy two 6 MW turbines on VolturnUS, the floating concrete semi-submersible hull designed by UMaine, south of Monhegan Island, off the coast of Maine. Each floating hull/turbine is held in position in the ocean by three marine mooring lines securely anchored to the seabed, with the electrical generation connected by subsea cable to the Maine power grid on shore. The floating offshore wind turbine platforms and column segments will be fabricated and assembled at an existing industrial facility adjacent to the Penobscot River in Hampden. Turbine components will be assembled on the hull in Searsport and subsequently towed to the UMaine Deepwater Offshore Wind Test Site at Monhegan Island. An interconnection alternate current (AC) cable will join the turbines, and then connect to a 34.5 kilovolt (kV) subsea power cable extending from the test site to a proposed onshore transition point. Several routes to the mainland are currently being evaluated. Once installed, the turbines are expected to produce clean renewable energy for the duration of a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA). <br/> <br/> <em>Project Timeline</em> <br/> 2017-2018: Conduct additional ecological studies, secure all appropriate permits <br/> 2019: Start VolturnUS platform fabrication <br/> 2019: Install onsite anchors, lay cable <br/> 2020: Commercial Operation Date (COD) <br/> <br/> For more information, see: <br/> <a href=" http://maineaquaventus.com/"target="_blank"> http://maineaquaventus.com</a> <br /> <br /> <em>Date of last review: May 2019</em>
