Offshore renewable energy : an exploration of techno-economic feasibility and reliability through a computational optimization perspective

Creator:

Clark, Caitlyn E.

Abstract:

Offshore renewable energy (ORE) has the potential to be a significant source of future global electricity production, reduce carbon emissions, decrease dependence on energy importation, and stimulate economic growth in coastal and remote areas. The availability and abundance of ORE, paired with growing coastal population centers, position offshore wind, wave,...

Risk- and Reliability-Based Design Optimization in Offshore Renewable Energy Systems

Creator:

Clark, Caitlyn E.

Abstract:

Offshore wind and wave energy have the potential to be significant sources of future global electricity production, reduce carbon emissions, decrease dependence on energy importation, and stimulate economic growth in coastal and remote areas. Fixed-foundation and floating offshore wind and wave energy technologies are at different stages of development, but...
