Physics‐Informed Bayesian Optimisation of Utility‐Scale Wind Farms in Synthetically Generated Complex Terrain Using LES

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Optimising turbine layouts to maximise power output is crucial for wind farm development, particularly in complex terrain where analytical wake models fail to capture key flow physics. We present the first application of Bayesian optimisation (BO) combined with large eddy simulations (LES) for utility‐scale wind farm layout optimisation in ...

Accessing offshore wind turbines for maintenance : calculating access probabilities, expected delays and the associated costs using a probabilistic approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There are ambitious plans in place for the expansion of offshore wind-power capacity in the EU and elsewhere. However, the cost of energy from offshore wind is much higher than that from land-based generation and anything between 15% and 30% of this cost

Global estimations of wind energy potential considering seasonal air density changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The literature typically considers constant annual average air density when computing the wind energy potential of a given location. In this work, the recent reanalysis ERA5 is used to obtain global seasonal estimates of wind energy production that ...

Comparison of Power and Thrust Performance for a Fixed and Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Floating offshore wind turbines have been identified as a critical technology for sustainable electricity generation. Wind resource assessment is used to determine optimal locations for floating wind farms. However, current methodologies do not account for performance differences between fixed and floating turbines due to wind‐ and wave ...

Estimating the cost of offshore maintenance and the benefit from condition monitoring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The EU generally, and the UK, Belgium, Netherlands and Germany specifically, have ambitious plans for the large scale installation of offshore wind-power capacity.

Failure rate, repair time and unscheduled O&M cost analysis of offshore wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Determining and understanding offshore wind turbine failure rates and resource requirement for repair are vital for modelling and reducing O&M costs and in turn reducing the cost of energy. While few offshore failure rates have been published in the past

Tinkering Towards Sustainability: Bundling Innovations to Electrify the Fossil‐Dependent Process Industry

open access: yesCreativity and Innovation Management, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 356-373, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sustainability transitions, such as electrifying the process industry, require a bundle of related innovations to make meaningful progress. Drawing on literature on innovation through tinkering, that is, adaptive, typically small‐scale experimentation with various forms of innovation, and applying a micropolitical perspective, this qualitative

Overview of Condition Monitoring Technology for Variable-Speed Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesEnergies
With the increasing complexity of offshore wind turbine structures and the rapid expansion of wind power projects, efficient, reliable, and robust fault diagnosis and condition monitoring methods have become crucial for effective operation and ...

From laggard to leader: explaining offshore wind developments in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Offshore wind technology has recently undergone rapid deployment in the UK. And yet, up until recently, the UK was considered a laggard in terms of deploying renewable energy. How can this burst of offshore wind activity be explained?
