METHOD FOR INSTALLING AND SERVICING AN APPARATUS RECOVERING THE KINETIC ENERGY OF WATER, AND AN APPARATUS RECOVERING THE KINETIC ENERGY OF WATER

摘要

The object of the invention is a method for installing and servicing an apparatus module (1) recovering the kinetic energy of water; and the apparatus module (1) itself. The apparatus module (1) with wave energy recovering units (3) is descended into the sea bottom (12) and is kept steady at the sea bottom (12) by the help of its own mass and the mass of the water filled into the compartments (2a and 2c) in the body (2) of the apparatus module (1). Correspondingly the apparatus module (1) is lifted into the surface of the water and made floating by the help of air that is blown to the compartments (2a) and (2c) in order to replace the water.
