A symbiotic approach to the design of offshore wind turbines with other energy harvesting systems

The capital cost of a 5 MW floating wind turbine (FWT) runs as high as $20.7 million, leading to an energy cost of $0.20/kWh, four times that of natural gas (Myhr et al., 2014). Although a single type of energy harvesting device may be too expensive to deploy, if it can operate symbiotically with ot...
