Development of Offshore Wind Power: Contrasting Optimal Wind Sites with Legal Restrictions in Galicia, Spain

Abstract: The region of Galicia, in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula, has a high wind potential for the installation of offshore wind farms (OWFs) in many areas of its surrounding marine waters. However, legal restrictions derived from the protection of other interests that converge in the marine environment (such as fishing, navigation, and biodiversity conservation) must be considered, along with technical limitations resulting from water depth. This study is aimed at analysing legal restrictions on the installa… Show more

“…In recent years, many scholars have devoted themselves to studying the status of offshore wind energy resources in various countries, and conducted evaluation from multiple layers. The hottest research is the construction technology of wind power 3‐20 such as tower structure, unit aerodynamic performance, wind turbine blade optimization design. Ma et al 3 established the time domain coupling calculation model of floating wind turbine, and proposed the wind turbine blade combination optimization design method.…”

“…Castro et al 15 proposed an evaluation model to achieve a life cycle cost assessment of a combined or hybrid floating marine renewable energy system to better understand the technical solution; Shiau et al 16 studied the social impact assessment of offshore wind power. Salvador et al 17 studied the legal constraints imposed by the protection of the marine environment and other interests to determine areas with large wind density (WPD) and less conflict.…”

“…Based on the available wind speed, grid demand, and possible malfunctions, wind turbine systems are expected to generate the required electrical power energy continuously [27][28][29][30][31]. Most of the countries that installed this wind power generation have access to a strong wind, located at high altitudes and offshore such as China [10,[32][33][34][35], Taiwan [8,[36][37][38][39][40], United States [10,35,[41][42][43][44][45], Germany [17,[46][47][48][49], India [43,[50][51][52][53], and Spain [54][55][56][57].…”

“…They usually require much more for the model parameters so that the application of physical methods is inevitably restricted by the uncertain weather conditions and the performance of NWP. In the situation of climate change, researches use climate models [15,16] to predict the future wind speed. Giménez, P.O.…”
