1. 21. Floating Offshore Wind Turbines : Mooring System Optimization for LCOE Reduction

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

   Author : Florian Thierry Stephan Castillo; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Offshore wind has a large potential in terms of electricity production and is becoming an important focus of interest for massive expansion of wind power. While encountering harsh environmental conditions and facing challenges in deployment and maintenance, offshore wind turbines benefit a lot from higher and more regular wind speeds if compared to conventional onshore wind turbine sites.

3. 22. CONFLICTS AND SOLUTIONS TO THE PROPOSED OPENING OF OFFSHORE WIND POWER DEVELOPMENT BLOCKS IN NORWAY

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Noor Nooraddin; [2020]
   Keywords : Wind power; offshore wind power acceptance; offshore wind and fishermen; Norway;

   Abstract : This Thesis aims to explore how the opening of offshore wind power development blocks in Norway results in conflicts between fishermen and the offshore wind industry. The goal is to identify synergies between the two maritime sectors which may be used in future consultation phases. READ MORE

4. 23. Conflicts and the possibility for coexistence between offshore wind power and national defence

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

   Author : Emma Nilsen Carman; [2020]
   Keywords : Common pool resource; wind power; national defence; coexist; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : Sweden has set a goal to produce 100% renewable electricity in 2040. In order to accomplish this, a transition towards renewable energy (RE) is necessary. However, the development of RE needs to coexist with other interests of the nation, as RE typically occupies large areas of land or off shore water. READ MORE

5. 24. Cost Comparison of Repowering Alternatives for Offshore Wind Farms

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Daniel Bergvall; [2019]
   Keywords : Offshore Wind Power Development; Offshore Wind Farm; Offshore Repowering; Lifetime Extension; Decommissioning; Levelized Cost of Energy; Net Present Value; Financial Analysis; Feasibility Study; End of Life Scenario; Annual Energy Production;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to evaluate different repowering alternatives from the viewpoint of increasing power production from existing offshore wind farms (OWF), as some of the first commissioned OWFs are approaching the end of their expected lifetime. The thesis presents a literature review of components and financial aspects that are of importance for repowering of OWFs. READ MORE

6. 25. Battery energy storage design and operation in an HVDC-system with WPP clusters
