Cable Layout Optimization of Offshore Wind Farm Based on Global Dynamic Minimum Spanning Tree Algorithm

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Wind energy has become one of the most promising new energy resources. In the construction of offshore wind farms, the cable accounts for about 10% of the total investment, and the optimization of the cable layout is necessary for reducing the total cost of the wind farm. In this paper, we proposed a novel algorithm for the optimization of the
