Logistics and supply chain management of maintenance is a very critical task in the offshore
wind energy industry. A failure to deliver proper maintenance services may adversely affect …

This paper presents a review of the current state of the art solutions to the problem of wind
farm optimal design. The aim of this work is to present the problem by identifying the most …

Most studies on offshore wind farm design assume a uniform wind farm, which consists of an
identical type of wind turbines. In order to further reduce the cost of energy, we investigate …

Offshore wind energy has been identified as one of the most promising and increasingly
attractive sources of energy. This technology offers a long-term power-generation source …

In an offshore wind farm (OWF), the turbines are connected to a transformer by cable routes
that cannot cross each other. Finding the minimum cost array cable layout thus amounts to a …

The reactive power (RP) control of the high voltage alternating current transmission system
(HVAC TS) for offshore wind farms (OWFs) is a crucial task to assure the consistent and …

In this paper, we introduce a new, single-component model for maintenance optimization
under time-varying costs, specifically oriented at offshore wind turbine maintenance. We …

Electrical layout design is a key element in offshore wind farm planning, with a critical impact
on both plant cost and reliability. Offshore Windfarm Layout optimizer (OWL) has been …

Abstract Currently, Offshore Wind Farms (OWFs) are designed to achieve high turbine
density so as to reduce costs. However, due to wake interferences, densely packing turbines …

Offshore wind power plants have been considered as one of the fastest-growing types of
renewable energy technologies that is superior to the onshore wind farms with low impacts …
