  1. 16. MODELING, SIMULATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF A SUBMERGED RENEWABLE STORAGE SYSTEM INTEGRATED TO A FLOATING WIND FARM : A feasibility case study on the Swedish side of the Baltic sea, based on the geographical and wind conditions

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Framtidens energi

    Author : Prajwal Honnanayakanahalli Ramakrishna; [2019]
    Keywords : Renewable ocean storage; storage spheres; Baltic Sea; Pumped Hydro; Modeling; Simulation; Optimization; Offshore wind farm; Storage sphere Integration; feasibility study; Genetic Algorithm; Multiple objective function; Life cycle cost; Payback period; Profit;

    Abstract : Mathematical modeling and simulations of a submerged renewable storage system integrated to a wind farm, chosen based on the geographical and wind conditions at the Baltic Sea, gives insight on the feasibility of the submerged renewable storage and an approximation of the payback period and profits that could be generated. Genetic Algorithms were used to obtain the optimal number of spheres for a certain depth, based on 2 objective functions I. READ MORE

  2. 17. Analysis of Hybrid Offshore Floating Wind and Marine Power

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Sai Varun kollappillai Murugan; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wind energy is a major part of renewable energy production. With fossil fuel depletion and climate change at the cusp, it is an absolute need to implement or evolve the current source or utilization of renewable energy. The wind has been dominating the onshore for many decades and offshore wind turbines are available at shallow depths. READ MORE

  3. 18. Comparison of electricity production between semi-submersible and spar-buoy floating offshore wind turbines

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Nermina Saracevic; [2018]
    Keywords : floating offshore wind turbine; semi-submersible; spar-buoy; six degrees of freedom; platform-rotor interaction; ASHES;

    Abstract : The paper compares electricity production between the semi-submersible and the spar-buoy floating wind turbine systems under normal, stochastic and extreme wind conditions at Utsira Nord site located on the Norwegian continental shelf in the North Sea. The analysis of complex behavior of the floating wind turbine system and the fluid-structure interaction is performed in aero-servo-hydro-elastic code ASHES. READ MORE

  4. 19. Opportunities and challenges for a floating offshore wind market in California

    University essay from KTH/Industriell Marknadsföring och Entreprenörskap

    Author : Pieter-Jan Vandenbrande; [2017]
    Keywords : Floating wind turbines; California; PESTEL analysis; market challenges and opportunities;

    Abstract : The offshore wind energy industry is a rapidly growing industry as solutions are becoming cost-competitive and there is an increasing need to limit greenhouse gas emissions. New floating offshore wind turbine designs now enable the access to previously inaccessible offshore wind resources. READ MORE

  5. 20. Offshore Floating Platforms : Analysis of a solution for motion mitigation

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Alberto Rodriguez Marijuan; [2017]
    Keywords : Offshore Wind; floating platform; wave tank test; hydrodynamic pressure; structural; hydrodynamic load; heave plate.;

    Abstract : Recent events regarding energy policies throughout the globe and advances in technology are making offshore wind farms become a reality. Most offshore wind farms are still, however, built close to land masses, and need to be rigidly attached to the seabed in one way or another. READ MORE
