“…For example, Duffin et al (2002), Rasmussen et al (2000), Henderson et al (2001), Farrier (1997, and Tong (1998) all argue that siting offshore alleviates this issue, and Bone (2004) says that siting offshore can ''represent an insignificant visual intrusion''. But turbines, even several miles offshore, still have a visual impact-and for many people, this is a decidedly negative impact.…”

a b s t r a c tThis paper is about understanding the role and importance of public responses to offshore wind power. It builds on a framework for understanding social acceptance and opposition to onshore turbines, and reviews the emerging research on offshore wind. While less is known about how people will respond to offshore than onshore wind, there is now an emerging body of research. From this literature, several common factors which influence responses have emerged and are discussed here: the (continued) role of visual impact; place attachment to the local area; lack of tangible benefits; relationships with developers and outsiders; and the role of the planning and decision-making systems. The paper argues that, as with onshore developments, the public should be included in decision-making about offshore wind farms, and that they have a key role which should not be underestimated. The paper concludes with some thoughts about the means to involve people and how effected communities might be effectively acknowledged, identified and engaged.

“…Referring to the mooring, three types of lines can be used (Tong 1998): chain, cable and synthetic fiber. On the other hand, four types of anchors can be used (American Petroleum Institute (API) 1996; Chakrabarti 2005): drag embedment anchor, suction pile, gravity anchor and plate anchor.…”

The main objective of this chapter is to explain a methodology for the calculation of the life-cycle costs of developing a floating offshore wind farm. In this context, two steps will be considered: defining the life-cycle phases of a floating offshore wind farm (conception and definition, design and development, manufacturing, installation, exploitation, and dismantling) and estimating costs for each phase, whose value will be established as constant or dependent on the particular point of the geography. The result of the tool will be a geo-referenced map of the total cost implied in the development of a floating offshore wind farm. The methodology will be applied to a particular location, Galicia (NW of Spain), where offshore depth and wind resource satisfy the necessary conditions for this type of offshore energy installation. The study will be developed for a semisubmersible floating offshore wind platform and a general offshore wind turbine of 5 MW. The farm will be composed of 21 offshore wind turbines, with a total power of 107 MW. Results show the cost maps of each defined phase and the total cost, which is from 366 to 946 M€ depending on the location (deep, distance from shore, among others), of the life-cycle of a floating offshore wind farm.
