EL FUTURO DE LOS AEROGENERADORES OFFSHORE: EVOLUCIÓN Y PERSPECTIVA DE LAS TECNOLOGÍAS DIRECT-DRIVE Y CON CAJA DE CAMBIOS TRADICIONAL

Abstract

Currently, the installed wind power capacity around the world in offshore installations is more than 60 GW, with a much higher growth rate than traditional onshore installations. This is due to the lack of barriers in the high seas, which means that air flows at a higher and more regular speed, allowing a greater amount of energy to be generated than in traditional onshore installations, which can even double it.
