... Abstract Floating wind energy presents a promising opportunity to harness vast wind resources that remain inaccessible using today’s bottom-fixed offshore wind technology. Transmitting the electricity generated by floating wind turbines to shore lies in dynamic cables. However...

... a jump start in the readiness of floating wind technologies. Compared with bottom-fixed offshore wind turbines, semi-submersible FOWT has many advantages, among different floater types, in economic efficiency as offshore wind farms go to deeper water. This paper summarizes the design of a mooring system...

... Abstract Floating wind is now entering a commercial-stage, and there are a significant number of commercial projects in countries like France, Japan, UK and Portugal. A floating wind project is complex and has many interdependencies and interfaces. During all stages of the project several...

... in the case of a normal shutdown [6]. For fixed-bottom wind turbines, increasing the blade pitch rate leads to an increase of instantaneous loads at the nacelle and tower, leading to the emergency shutdown pitch rate being usually chosen to be as low as possible.

... Abstract Existing mooring systems for floating offshore wind turbines are largely based on designs from the oil and gas industry. Even though these can ensure the safe station keeping of the floating wind platform, the design of the mooring system is currently largely conservative, leading...

... Abstract EOLINK have developed an innovative floating wind turbine in which the single tower is replaced by a set of legs providing a pyramidal architecture. A 1/10 th scale prototype of EOLINK’s 12MW concept has been connected to the grid in April 2018 in France. Firstly, the paper describes...
