    Abstract: A method for mounting or dismounting a wind turbine component of an energy generating unit in a multirotor wind turbine is disclosed. The multirotor wind turbine comprises a tower configured to support one or more load carrying structures each arranged for supporting at least two energy generating units arranged at or near its ends and at opposite sides of the tower. The method comprises positioning or dispositioning a first wind turbine component at a first end of the load carrying structure, yawing the load carrying structure approximately 180 degrees, and positioning or dispositioning a second wind turbine component at the second end of the load carrying structure opposite the first end. The method may be used in erecting or servicing a multirotor wind turbine.

    Abstract: A wind turbine nacelle configured for mounting on a wind turbine tower and for supporting a rotor assembly, the nacelle comprising at least a first and a second nacelle module. The first nacelle module comprises a first frame structure and a main bearing system for a main shaft of the rotor assembly, and the second nacelle module comprises a second frame structure and a drive train system for the wind turbine. When the nacelle is mounted on the wind turbine tower, the main bearing system is supported by the wind turbine tower, and the drive train system is attached to the main bearing such that the weight of the drive train system is transferred to the main bearing system and thereby to the wind turbine tower. Further, the first frame structure is configured to support the main bearing system during transportation and prior to mounting of the nacelle, and the second frame structure is configured to support the drive train system during transportation and prior to mounting of the nacelle, and the first and second frame structures form a load carrying structure of a first and a second shipping freight container such that the first and second nacelle module can be transported as shipping freight containers. When the nacelle is mounted on the wind turbine tower, the first and second frame structures may be placed side by side in a direction along a rotational axis of the wind turbine rotor and may be oriented such as to have a length extending transversely to a rotational axis of the wind turbine rotor.
