Feasibility study for a prototype offshore wind turbine. V. 3. Appendices

Abstract

The objective of this report is to examine the electrical and control aspects of the installation of a single demonstration wind turbine, or an array of wind turbines in an off-shore location. Although the conclusions in this summary relate to a specific site, the findings are of more general application to other sites not more than 10 km off-shore and for wind not exceeding 500 kW peak power output. The scope of work covered electrical power, electronic data gathering, and communication and control equipment. The topics examined included: identification of modification needed to the electrical and control systems to make an onshore wind turbine design suitable for operation off-shore; control of the turbine and auxiliary equipment; sea-to-shore power transmission by submarine cable, and grid connection; sea-to-shore communications; and experimental data acquisition.
