Understanding the spatial variation of the levelised cost of energy (LCOE) of offshore wind is
fundamental for identifying potential areas for the development of this technology. With this …

The aim of this paper is to present the current status of the offshore wind industry and to
identify trends in Offshore Wind Projects (OWPs). This was accomplished via a thorough …

The multi criteria decision making (MCDM) has been applied in Integrated Energy Planning
(IEP) and Integrated Coastal Management (ICM) frameworks. In this paper, a novel hybrid …

Abstract In the United Kingdom wind power is recognised as the main source of renewable
energy to achieve the European Union 2020 renewable energy targets. Currently over 50 …

Floating offshore wind, far less constrained by water depths than bottom-fixed, has great
potential in the Mediterranean Basin. The levelised cost of energy (LCOE) is arguably the …

Purpose Life cycle cost (LCC) considerations are of increasing importance to offshore wind
farm operators and their insurers to undertake long-term profitable investments and to make …

Floating photovoltaic (PV) energy has been widely deployed in reservoirs, but its coastal
and offshore potential remains largely untapped. This work presents the first large-scale …

Offshore wind energy generation has experienced an important growth in the last five years,
reaching currently an installed capacity of almost 8000 MW. The most important references …

Abstract The Canary Islands, as many islands and coastal regions, are characterized by no
conventional energy sources (but renewable resources, mainly wind and solar), by a high …

A methodology is presented to assess the life-cycle costs of combined or hybrid floating
offshore renewable energy systems, which is also applicable to general floating offshore …
