Introduction to offshore wind energy
Abstract
Offshore wind power is set to increase significantly in the near future. A key for the success is to constrain the levelised cost of energy (LCoE). In addition to turbine and infrastructure technologies, it is also important to understand the challenges in the aspects of planning, construction and operation of offshore wind farms. This introductory chapter outlines the structure of the book which is aimed to describe the nature of the challenges, current practices and future solutions being developed, covering wind resources, turbine components & technologies, grid integration ...
