  3. 7. Developing a Cost Model For Combined Offshore Farms : The Advantages of Co-Located Wind and Wave Energy

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Eva Blech; [2023]
    Keywords : Wave Energy; Floating Offshore Wind; Co-located Wind-Wave Farm; Levelized Cost of Energy; Multi-Source Offshore Farm; Vågenergi; flytande havsbaserad vindkraft; samlokaliserad vind- och vågpark; nivellerad energikostnad; havsbaserad park med flera källor;

    Abstract : Previous research has displayed that multi-source farms provide an opportunity to reduce the cost of energy and improve the energy output quality. This thesis assesses the cost competitiveness of co-located wind-wave farms, specifically floating offshore wind (FLOW) turbines and CorPower’s wave energy converters (WEC). READ MORE

  4. 8. Assessing Offshore Wind System Integration: Comparative Analysis of Floating Photovoltaics, Oscillating Surge Wave Converters, and Battery Energy Storage Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Wilhelm Niilekselä; Douglas Hansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The high penetration of wind power is increasing the intermittency and power variability into the existing power grid. This is forcing industries to look for optimal configurations in order to improve their systems performance and minimize these effects from the power production method. READ MORE

  5. 9. Decarbonisation of service vessels in offshore wind power through power-to-X self-sufficiency

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Clemens Kellander; Ludvig Fredriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Alternative fuels; compressed hydrogen; battery; production; energy storage; operation and maintenance; O M; offshore; wind power; service vessel; crew transfer vessel; CTV; service operations vessel; SOV; decarbonisation; global warming potential; life cycle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report examines the possibilities of decarbonising operation & maintenance vessels for a prospective floating offshore wind power park at the Utsira Nord site in Norway, through self-sufficient energy carrier production utilizing power-to-X-solutions. Possible alternative fuels are identified as compressed hydrogen, batteries, liquid hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, and biofuels, out of which the former two are the subject for thorough investigation in this report.
