Design of Floating Installation Vessel for Offshore Installation of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesInternational Marine Design Conference
The installation of the present wind farms Hywind Scotland and Hywind Tampen are both carried out by towing the fully assembled wind turbine from the assembly site in the Norwegian fjords to the final offshore site. In the present study an alternative installation method is proposed where the fully assembled tower is transported to the site on the ...

Accessibility and Serviceability Assessment to Inform Offshore Wind Energy Development and Operations off the US East Coast

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The economic success of offshore wind energy projects relies on accurate projections of the construction and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs. These projections must consider the logistical complexities introduced by adverse met‐ocean conditions that can prohibit access to the offshore assets for sustained periods of time.

Assessing the Underwater Impact of Aerodynamic Noise From Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for offshore wind energy has led to a significant increase in wind turbine size and to the development of large‐scale wind farms, often comprising 100–150 turbines. However, the environmental impact of underwater noise emissions remains largely unaddressed.
