Wind resource evolution in Europe under different scenarios of climate change characterised by the novel Shared Socioeconomic Pathways

A. Martinez et al.

Summary: The study examined the evolution of wind energy resources under different climate change scenarios in Europe, predicting significant reductions in wind power density in Northern Continental Europe and the Central Mediterranean, while an increase is projected in West Finland. The overall trend in other regions depends on the SSP scenario, with considerable growth in Central Europe in the intermediate emissions scenario but some reduction in the highest emissions scenario.

The influence of power-take-off control on the dynamic response and power output of combined semi-submersible floating wind turbine and point-absorber wave energy converters

Yulin Si et al.

Summary: A hybrid floating wind and wave power generation platform was proposed, incorporating wave energy converters into floating offshore wind turbines to potentially reduce energy costs. Different control strategies for the wave energy converters were studied, showing significant impacts on platform dynamics and power generation. The optimal control design for WECs attached to fixed structures may not be suitable for the combined floating wind and wave energy production platform, warranting further investigation.

Optimization of Low Head Axial-Flow Turbines for an Overtopping BReakwater for Energy Conversion: A Case Study

Antonio Mariani et al.

Summary: The overtopping-type wave power conversion devices show great potential in providing reliable and competitively priced electricity supplies from waves. However, the selection and regulation of hydraulic turbines can be complex due to low head and variable flow rates in the overtopping breakwater setups. Through a case study in San Antonio Port, Chile, different runner diameters of axial-flow turbines were compared to propose optimal settings for maximizing system energy production.

Dynamic Loads and Response of a Spar Buoy Wind Turbine with Pitch-Controlled Rotating Blades: An Experimental Study

Sara Russo et al.

Summary: New large-scale laboratory data on a physical model of a spar buoy wind turbine with pitch control show that waves contribute significantly to model motions and mooring loads, with a significant nonlinear behavior detected. As wave period increases, wind speed has less influence on surge, heave, and pitch, and higher wave steepness leads to decreased oscillations. The experiments emphasize the importance of including pitch-controlled, variable-speed blades in tests on such structures.

Recovery processes in a large offshore wind farm

Tanvi Gupta et al.

Summary: This study investigates the recovery processes in wind farms, focusing on wind turbines extracting energy from the atmospheric flow and the replenishment of momentum through atmospheric momentum convergence. Vertical turbulent transport is the main contributor to momentum recovery, while horizontal advective momentum transport also plays a role in high-wind-speed conditions and sparsely packed wind farms. Mesoscale circulations generated by wind farms can transport high-momentum air from aloft into the atmospheric boundary layer, aiding in the recovery of wind farms.
