Discussions on the Main Electrical Wiring Scheme for a 400 MW Offshore Substation Station
[Introduction] Offshore wind farms are characterized by long distance from shore, high costs of repair due to vessels involved and weather, long maintenance cycles and the fact that daily operations and maintenance is highly dependent on weather and sea ...

The 3 km Norwegian reanalysis (NORA3) – a validation of offshore wind resources in the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea [PDF]
We validate a new high-resolution (3 km) numerical mesoscale weather simulation for offshore wind power purposes for the time period 2004–2016 for the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea. The 3 km Norwegian reanalysis (NORA3) is a dynamically downscaled data

Swell impacts on an offshore wind farm in stable boundary layer: wake flow and energy budget analysis [PDF]
We investigate the impact of swell on wind turbine wakes and the power output of offshore wind farms under stable atmospheric conditions. We conduct large-eddy simulations, and the influence of swell is modeled by incorporating a wave-induced stress term

The economics of offshore wind [PDF]
Abstract This paper presents an overview of the main issues associated with the economics of offshore wind. Investment in offshore wind systems has been growing rapidly throughout Europe, and the technology will be essential in meeting EU targets for renewable energy in 2020. Offshore wind suffers from high installation and connection costs, however,
