While the Challenger Bank option has now been ruled out, the other two sites are economically attractive, according to the study. It identified three locations as potential sites Challenger Bank, the Lagoon, and the Main Terrace using floating solar panels and wind turbines as sources of power generation. The report, conducted Ricardo Energy and Environment and commissioned by the Regulatory Authority, acknowledged that practical and commercial hurdles would make any offshore wind development particularly challenging.Ĭhallenges included cable layout, the need for floating foundations, a potential interference with shipping routes and fishing areas, and visual impact that would impede project cost, acceptance or even feasibility even further. In addition, the coupling motion between the floating foundation and turbine should be considered in the safety evaluation of the floating offshore wind turbine under typhoon conditions.Two locations have been identified as possible sites for an offshore wind farm, according to an initial report.īut further studies need to be carried out before it can be decided if the project to bring sustainable energy to the island is viable. Considering only the maximum wave height or wind speed may underestimate the motion response during the traveling process of the typhoon, which has problems in guiding the anti-typhoon design of offshore wind turbines. The results show that the maximum response does not exactly correspond to the maximum wave or wind stage. On this basis, the motion response and structural loads of different stages are calculated and analyzed systematically. For this purpose, a framework is established and verified for investigating the typhoon-induced effects of offshore wind turbines, including a multistage typhoon wave field and a coupled dynamic model of offshore wind turbines. Based on Typhoon Mangkhut, in this study, the characteristics of the motion response and structural loads of an offshore wind turbine are investigated during the travel process. However, the influences of multistage typhoon wind and waves on offshore wind turbines have not yet been studied.
