Abstract: A floating body (4) for a spar-type offshore wind power generation facility floating sideways is raised by injecting ballast water at sea, by steps including a first step of decentering a center of gravity of the floating body for the spar-type offshore wind power generation facility by means of a center-of-gravity decentering device, and a second step of injecting the ballast water to raise upright the floating body for the spar-type offshore wind power generation facility. The center-of-gravity decentering device may be a weight (2) attached to an outer surface of the floating body, or a solid ballast (34) introduced in the floating body.

Abstract: A floating offshore wind power generation facility includes a floating body, a mooring cable, a tower, and a windmill installed at the top of the tower, the windmill including a nacelle and a plurality of blades. The rotation axis of the windmill has a predetermined upward angle to avoid contact between the blades and the tower, and the windmill is of a downwind type in which the blades are attached to the leeward side of the nacelle and installed with the back surfaces of the blades facing windward, and the mooring point of the mooring cable to the floating body is set at a position below the surface of the sea and higher than the center of gravity of the floating body.
