Abstract
The hybrid system proposed in this study involves an offshore-wind turbine and a complementary tidal turbine that supplies grid power. The hybrid wind–tidal system consistently combines wind power and tidal power to guarantee the continuous availability of grid power. The power output from the offshore-wind is complemented by tidal power to maintain the grid power. The wind power is subject to short-term fluctuations, and the tidal power is used to compensate for these variations. This indicates that the tidal turbine must be able to increase production very quickly in order to supply grid power. Therefore, a performance analysis is necessary to determine the effective contributions from the tidal and wind turbine generators, and their contributions to the load system.
