Guedes Soares, C., Bhattacharjee, J. e Karmakar, D. (2014), “Overview and prospects for development of wave and offshore wind energy”, Brodogradnja, Vol. 65(2), pp. 87-109

An overview of the available forms of renewable energy will be given to set the stage to the follow up discussion, which concentrates only on offshore wave and wind energy. Information on some of the current wave energy systems and companies worldwide will be given as indicative of the present state of affairs. The main working principles of wave energy systems are described and the differences in terms of working principle, conversion chain, location and power take-off systems are highlighted. Some of the technology challenges are identified. Prospects of utilization of the various wave energy concepts are discussed comparing the characteristics of the devices in particular their power output. The evolution of the concepts of wind turbines with time is presented. The main types of offshore wind turbine concepts are presented, from the shallow water fixed ones to the floating ones. The components of a wind turbine are briefly presented together with the logistics required for a wind farm installation offshore including the electric cable laying and the maritime operations and vessels for installation of the devices offshore. Prospects of evolution of these concepts are discussed.
