A Flexible, Multi-fidelity Levelised Cost of Energy Model for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines Multidisciplinary Design, Analysis and Optimisation Approaches

As the UK takes a step towards a greener, cleaner future aiming to be net zero by 2050, continuous development of the power network is required. A clear solution is offshore wind, having already proved its feasibility and success in nearshore sites. However, a large majority of near shore sites in the UK are already being utilised. The next...

A review and analysis of optimisation techniques applied to floating offshore wind platforms

The deployment of offshore wind in the UK has seen a rapid increase in the past decade and will continue to increase with the securement of the recent Scotwind sites. Floating platforms will be utilised for 60% of these new sites, creating opportunities to try new platform typologies and further solidify the validity of existing concepts....

A Review and Analysis of the Uncertainty Within Cost Models for Floating Offshore Wind Farms

The development and deployment of offshore wind farms in the last decade have seen a dramatic increase, now totalling 743 GW globally (Global Wind Energy Council, 2022). This rapid increase is expected to further continue now with the potential to explore deeper sites with the adoption of floating offshore platforms. Proof of this growth has...
