Summary of Technologies for the Development of Offshore Wind Power Industry in China

Abstract

Offshore wind power is an important development trend in the field of renewable energy in China in the future. Firstly, this paper summarized the current development of domestic offshore wind power industry, analyzed the development trend of domestic offshore wind power industry chain, and then introduced the current cutting-edge technology of offshore wind power industry from the subdivided technical field. It mainly covers unit technology, including blade design and pitch control, transmission chain, motor, converter, main control system, etc; networking transmission technology, including AC, DC and low-frequency transmission technology, as well as compact and lightweight offshore platform design technology; engineering construction technology, mainly including offshore engineering, wind farm construction and submarine cable technology; offshore wind power operation and maintenance technologies, mainly including offshore wind power prediction, wake prediction, optimal dispatching, monitoring and maintenance, etc. The research results can provide the reference for the development of offshore wind power in China.
