The urgent demand for energy structural reform and the limitations of single energy development have promoted the combination of wind energy and wave energy. A hybrid energy system means that two or more energy devices share the same foundation. It reduces the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and improves competitiveness through infrastructure sharing and increased power output. This paper starts with the development of the joint resources of wind and wave energies, then introduces the foundation forms of the hybrid system. It reviews the latest concepts and devices proposed with the integration of wind energy and wave energy, according to the foundation forms, and makes a preliminary assessment of the synergies of the hybrid system. The existing study methods of the hybrid systems are summarized. In view of the challenges faced by the development of hybrid energy systems, several suggestions are put forward accordingly. This paper provides a comprehensive guideline for the future development of the hybrid wind-wave energy converter (W-WEC) system.

“…The TLP floating platform considered is the one described in Zhou et al (2016) [45], while for the SB platform, the reference is the structure described in [32]. Platform volume and mass of the TLP structure and floater volume of SB platform have been calculated by authors considering dimensions, while weight of anchoring and weight of mooring have been calculated considering installation depth of the platform [46].…”

Floating Offshore Renewable Energy Farms. A Life-Cycle Cost Analysis at Brindisi, Italy

The present paper deals with the Life-Cycle Cost (LCC) of an offshore renewable energy farm that is currently a topic of interest for operators and investors. The LCC analysis refers to the Cost Breakdown Structure (CBS) considering all the phases of life span, and it has been carried out for floating offshore wind farms (FOWFs) and hybrid wind-wave farms (HWWFs). For HWWFs, this paper proposes a hybrid wind-wave energy system (HWWES), which provides the coupling of wave energy converter (WEC) with Tension Leg Platform (TLP) or Spar Buoy platform (SB). The LCC analysis has been carried out considering: (i) FOWF consisting of TLP floating platforms; (ii) FOWF consisting of a SB floating platforms; (iii) HWWF realized with the conceived hybrid system coupling the WEC with the TLP platform; (iv) HWWF realized with the conceived hybrid system coupling the WEC with SB platform. In addition to the LCC evaluation, the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) analysis has also been carried out. The site chosen for the study is off the port of Brindisi, southern Italy. This work’s interest lies in having performed a LCC analysis for FOWF and HWWF in the Mediterranean that is an area of growing interest for offshore renewable energy, and obtained results have allowed making assessments on costs for offshore energy farms.
