Review on the Application of Artificial Intelligence Methods in the Control and Design of Offshore Wind Power Systems

Abstract

As global energy crises and climate change intensify, offshore wind energy, as a renewable energy source, is given more attention globally. The wind power generation system is fundamental in harnessing offshore wind energy, where the control and design significantly influence the power production performance and the production cost. As the scale of the wind power generation system expands, traditional methods are time-consuming and struggle to keep pace with the rapid development in wind power generation systems. In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has significantly increased in the research field of control and design of offshore wind power systems. In this paper, 135 highly relevant publications from mainstream databases are reviewed and systematically analyzed. On this basis, control problems for offshore wind power systems focus on wind turbine control and wind farm wake control, and design problems focus on wind turbine selection, layout optimization, and collection system design. For each field, the application of artificial intelligence technologies such as fuzzy logic, heuristic algorithms, deep learning, and reinforcement learning is comprehensively analyzed from the perspective of performing optimization. Finally, this report summarizes the status of current development in artificial intelligence technology concerning the control and design research of offshore wind power systems, and proposes potential future research trends and opportunities.

Fuzzy Integrated Delphi-ISM-MICMAC Hybrid Multi-Criteria Approach to Optimize the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Factors Influencing Cost Management in Civil Engineering

“…According to Song et al [11], cost management is paramount in civil engineering projects to ensure that projects are completed within budget constraints and deliver value for stakeholders. Liao et al [12] stated that effective cost management practices are crucial for achieving project objectives, meeting client expectations, and optimizing resource allocation.…”

Grid-Impedance-Based Transient Current Control for Offshore Wind Turbines under Low-Voltage Fault

“…Among renewable energy sources, wind power accounts for 23% of the total global renewable energy, ranking second after hydrogen power [3]. Offshore wind power, as a form of marine renewable energy, has gained considerable attention due to its abundance of wind resources, proximity to load centers, and minimal land occupation [4,5]. Extensive research has been conducted on the transmission schemes for offshore wind turbines, including high-voltage alternative current (HVAC) and high-voltage direct current (HVDC) [6].…”
