This is the research of wind turbine that is designed to supply power to offshore buoy system. In order to reach maximum efficiency in limited space, vertical axis wind turbine was used. Vertical axis wind turbine system that was applied in this research has the form of lift and drag blade combined to achieve high efficiency at both high and low speed. In addition, support system was designed and developed to suit the offshore condition.

This study applied long-term wind speed data from Penghu and Dongjidao weather stations to simulate the wind energy production for eight onshore and one offshore wind farms at Penghu Island, Taiwan by a commercial software package, Wind Atlas Application Program (WAsP). In addition, the RET Screen software suite was also applied to analyze economic characteristics of these nine wind farms (WFs). The results show that the capacity factors (CFs) of the nine wind farms mentioned above are in the range of 44.5% to 49.1%. In addition, utilizing 1.8-MW wind turbines (WTs) for all onshore WFs was the most feasible selection among the four potential types of WTs (600, 900, 1,800 and 3,600 kW) considered. 3-MW WTs selected for the offshore WF can produce the most wind energy and the smallest wake loss among the three possible types of WTs (1, 2 and 3MW). As a consequence of implementing these WFs, the emission of about 680,977 tons carbon dioxide ($tCO_2$) into the local atmosphere in Penghu Island annually could be avoided. Finally, based on the payback periods achieved, the order of implementation of the considered WFs can be identified more clearly. Longmen WF should be the first priority, and the next one should be SiyuWF and so on. Besides, this study provides much useful information for WF planning on Penghu Island.

The MERRA reanalysis data provided online by NASA was applied to predict the monthly energy productions of Donghai Bridge Offshore wind farms in China. WindPRO and WindSim that are commercial software for wind farm design and energy prediction were used. For topography and roughness map, the contour line data from SRTM combined with roughness information were made and used. Predictions were made for 11 months from July, 2010 to May, 2011, and the results were compared with the actual electricity energy production presented in the CDM(Clean Development Mechanism)monitoring report of the wind farm. The results from the prediction programs were close to the actual electricity energy productions and the errors were within 4%.

A web-based program was developed for analyzing weather and structure data from the HeMOSU-1 offshore meteorological mast installed by the KEPCO Research Institute, and 35 km west-southwestward away from Gyeokpo located in Jeonbuk province. All of the measured data are obtained through the data transmitter and the server systems equipped on the HeMOSU-1 and the aerodynamic laboratory in Chonbuk National University respectively. The dualised server system consists of two servers, one is for logging the 1 second based raw data with 10 minute averaged values, and the other is for managing web page with processed weather data. Daily or weekly 10-min averaged data can be provided based on the input date by users. Processed weather data such as wind rose, Weibull distribution, diurnal distribution, turbulence intensity according to wind speed, wind energy density, and so forth are visualized through the web page which would be both useful and informative for developing the wind farm or designing a wind blade for the wind farm nearby southwest sea around the Korean Peninsula. The URL for this web page is http://www.hemosu.org/.

세계 각국은 신재생 에너지 가운데 해상풍력 발전에 국가적 역량을 집중하면서 해상풍력 터빈의 용량을 대형화하고 있다. 특히 해상풍력 터빈은 부피와 중량이 큰 특징이 있어 육상운송에 어려움이 있어 해상풍력 전용항만이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 해상풍력 단지가 성공적으로 조성 및 운영될 수 있도록 최적의 전용항만 입지선정에 영향을 끼치는 평가항목을 분석하여 국가정책 의사결정에 올바른 방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 Fuzzy-AHP 기법을 적용하여 평가항목 별 중요도를 도출하였다. 평가항목은 수준 I에서는 5가지, 즉 집적 요인, 지역 요인, 경제 요인, 입지 요인, 컨소시엄 요인이 선정되었다. 이 가운데 집적 요인 37.4%, 입지 요인 34.2%, 경제 요인 24.5%가 주요한 항목으로 분석되었다. 그리고 수준 II에서는 각 요인에 3가지 항목이 선정되어 모두 15개 평가항목이 선정되었다. 분석 결과를 보면, 해상풍력 전용항만 입지 선정에 있어서 핵심적으로 고려되어야 할 항목은 풍력산업의 집적도, 항만운영의 경제성을 확보하는 물동량 규모, 해상풍력 관련 산업의 발달 정도, 그리고 개발될 해상풍력 단지와의 근접성으로 나타났다. 즉 해상풍력 전용항만 건설은 항만건설 측면과 해상풍력 터빈 제조기업의 입지 선호지역을 복합적으로 고려해야 한다는 의미이다. 따라서 정부가 해상풍력 전용항만을 건설함에 있어서 풍력터빈 제조기업의 의견을 충분히 반영하는 것이 요구된다.

본 연구에서는 해상풍력발전 후보지인 영광해상에 설치한 해상 기상타워 해모수 1호(HeMOSU-1)의 2011년 연간 풍속 관측 자료와 기상타워 해모수 1호 설치 지점에 인접한 부안, 고창, 영광 3개 지점의 육상 풍속자료를 이용하여 해상 임의고도에서의 풍속 산정 과정에서 발생하는 오차에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 먼저 육상 풍속자료와 해상 풍속자료의 선형회귀분석으로 유도된 관계식을 이용하여 해상 기준고도(평균해수면 98.69 m)의 해상풍속자료를 추정하였다. 그리고, 추정된 해상풍속 자료는 관측자료를 통해 산출된 고도분포지수 값(${\simeq}0.115$)과 멱법칙 풍속프로파일을 이용하여 87.65 m 높이로 고도보정하여 관측치와 비교하였다. 연구 수행결과, 공간보정오차는 1.6~2.2 m/s 정도이며, 고도보정오차는 0.1 m/s 정도로 공간보정오차의 약 5% 정도에 불과한 것으로 파악되었다. 육상자료를 환산하여 해상임의지점의 풍속을 추정하는 경우, 큰 오차가 발생하기 때문에 장기간의 해상자료를 확보하거나 정확도가 높은 모델링 자료를 이용하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Depending on the water depth and composition of seabed, there exist different alternatives for the wind turbine supporting structures. Among several types of the structures, the monopile foundation is the dominant solution for support structure, accounting for over 80% of the offshore wind turbines in Europe. To develop the monopile foundation suitable for domestic ocean environment, a basic design of a transition piece was carried out. This paper presents the design procedure of a flange connected transition piece and results of the structural safety assessment.

Foundation plays an important role in the offshore wind turbine system. Different from conventional foundations, the suction caisson is proven to be economical and reliable. In this work, three-dimensional finite element method is used to check the suitability of suction caisson foundation. NREL 5MW wind turbine is chosen as a baseline model in our simulation. The maximum overturning moment and vertical load at the mudline are calculated using FAST and Bladed. Meanwhile the soil-structure interaction response from our simulation is also compared with the experiment data from Oxford university. The design parameter such as caisson length, diameter of skirt and spacing of multipod are investigated. Accordingly based on these parameters suggestions are given to use suction caisson foundations more efficiently.

Large-scale offshore wind power is emerging as a viable solution to achieve carbon neutrality and solve climate change. As power generation complexes require ample space for construction, they create conflicts with residents near the construction site. To resolve the issue with residents, Korea, along with other countries, has developed policies that focus on influencing public perception. However, as the contents of such policies changed several times in a short period in Korea, they were differently applied depending on the timing of the project. This study examines how Korean offshore wind power site development policies, particularly the ones focusing on swaying public perception, were applied differently by regions.

In resent years, Offshore Wind Farm (OWF) is being actively developed. Typically, OWF has a better wind resource than onshore one, but also have a very high investment cost and maintenance cost. Furthermore, due to a difficulty of geographical access, OWF can be affected by the failure for a longer time. As the result, OWF has a higher loss cost. Therefore, a reliability evaluation should be performed more carefully at OWF planning stage. In this paper, a methodology for the reliability evaluation on inner grid is suggested. Inner grid connects wind turbines via submarine cables and transfers power to offshore substation. According to location of the faulted cable under layouts of inner grid, the transfer ability of inner grid is influenced. In order to indicate the transfer ability of inner grid, several indices are introduced such as PNDR, EEND and EENDC. To demonstrate the methodology described in this paper, diversity case studies were performed.
