Offshore wind energy is pivotal in the global energy transition, with a global installed capacity reaching 64.3 GW by 2022 and an expected annual increase of 60.2 GW over the next decade. This study aims to optimize the topology of transmission systems (TS) for offshore wind farm (OWF) clusters using Stackelberg game theory. The OWF investor (OWFI) acts as the leader, optimizing investment returns while considering wake effects, and the offshore TS operator (OTSO) follows by adjusting transmission strategies to reduce costs. The analysis includes the wake effects within OWF clusters and their impact on power generation efficiency. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed model can balance stakeholder interests and enhance the economic viability of OWF clusters, showing a potential increase in net present value (NPV) by up to 30 %. This study validates the practical application of the Stackelberg game model in optimizing OWF cluster TS topology, contributing to more efficient and cost-effective renewable energy integration.
