Floating Offshore Vertical Axis Wind Turbines: Opportunities, Challenges and Way Forward
The offshore wind sector is expanding to deep water locations through floating platforms. This poses challenges to horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) due to the ever growing size of blades and floating support structures. As such, maintaining the structural integrity and reducing the levelised co...
