Research and development in floating offshore wind energy: bridging the gap from resource analysis to deployment

The deployment of offshore wind farms further away from the coast has several advantages, but brings along a few important challenges, such as the need to install the turbines in floating platforms, costly operation and maintenance, and subsea power transmission over longer distances. In this talk, we will discuss these and other challenges and will present research and development projects carried out at the University of São Paulo which aim to help to overcome them.
