Offshore Wind Farm Technology: design, installation and operation
This course is offered online over 7 weeks, with an expected weekly workload of 4-6 hours. It focuses on how the various engineering disciplines integrate in the design and installation of offshore wind farms. At its core is a practical case study of the design, construction and operation of an offshore wind farm. Each learning week focuses on a particular discipline, examining issues and challenges such as external conditions, installation logistics, dynamics, grid integration, operation and maintenance.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Understand how the various technical disciplines interact with one another.
- Select the best options for developing and operating offshore wind farms.
- Grasp how wind turbines are designed to handle various conditions, such as dynamic wind and wave and loadings.
- Describe grid integration strategies for offshore wind turbines.
- Understand operationaland maintenance strategies for offshore wind turbines and farms.
- Cooperate more effectively with other technology partners active in the field and thus extend your professional network.
