The review is being conducted due to a scope change being made on activities previously listed in the original Statement of Project Objectives for this award. This project will focus on furthering the development of floating offshore wind farm technologies for deep water deployments. Project activities will include curriculum development, field studies, environmental monitoring, cost analyses, lab studies to validate aeroelastic-hydrodynamic models and floating platform designs for floating turbines, and cost feasibility assessments.
