Abstract
After several decades of theoretical developments, desk studies, experimental wind turbines and prototype windfarms, the first large-scale commercial developments of offshore windfarms are now being built. To support and accelerate this development, the European Commission funded a project, ‘Concerted Action on Offshore Wind Energy in Europe’ (CA-OWEE), which aimed to gather and distribute knowledge on all aspects of offshore wind energy, including: offshore technology, electrical integration, economics, environmental impacts and political aspects. The partners are from a wide range of fields and include developers, utilities, consultants, research institutes and universities. Andrew R. Henderson, Section Wind Energy, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands and other authors give an overview of the findings of the project.
