Embodiment Construction

[0061] figure 1 A floating wind turbine 101 including turbine blades 102 coupled to a nacelle 103 is shown in . exist figure 1 In, three turbine blades 102 are shown, however it will be appreciated that the number of turbine blades 102 depends on the design of the wind turbine and one or more turbine blades 102 may be included. and, figure 1 A horizontal axis turbine blade arrangement is shown, however, it will be appreciated that the wind turbine may alternatively or additionally comprise a vertical axis turbine blade arrangement. Furthermore, the design of the wind turbine may instead or additionally comprise so-called upwind and / or downwind wind turbine designs.

[0062] The nacelle 103 is mounted on a tower 104 . Typically, the nacelle 103 will house the generator, gearbox, drive shaft and other electrical and mechanical equipment ( figure 1 not shown in ) in order to generate electrical power from the kinetic energy of the wind. It will be appreciated that the requi...

Abstract

The present invention relates to methods, apparatus and computer program products for coordinating the control of a floating wind turbine (101) between a wind turbine controller (111) and a platform controller (110). One or more wind turbine control systems and / or one or more platform control systems may be altered based on said coordinated control of said floating wind turbine (101).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to coordinated control of floating wind turbines. Background technique [0002] Wind turbines, which efficiently harness wind energy to generate electricity, are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative energy source to traditional methods for generating electricity. In order to generate the right amount of electrical power, wind turbines are often co-located together in large groups called wind farms. Wind farms can vary in size from dozens to hundreds of wind turbines. [0003] Traditionally, wind farms are located in land areas where the available wind energy is suitable for sustainable power generation. However, as more wind farms are established, there are fewer suitable locations on land to provide suitable wind flow (eg, wind flow unaffected by mountains, forests, buildings, etc.) to achieve a stable power generation level. Additionally, since wind farms can include hundreds of wind turbines, they can be u...
