Floating offshore wind turbines - technology and potential
Keywords:
floating wind turbines, wind energy, anchoring, oscillations, stability
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to present a short review of the actual progress on the floating offshore wind turbines. Floating offshore wind turbines have several advantages: overcoming the depth constraint, floating offshore wind turbines can be installed further offshore and therefore on the one hand have little or no visual impact from the coast, and on the other hand to take advantage of more constant and stronger winds, thus increasing the production efficiency of electricity. They are assembled to port and then transported to site with an ordinary tug, which can also bring them ashore for heavy maintenance or final dismantling. Floating wind power is the future of offshore wind power.
