Abstract | This thesis analyses a design in which individual wind turbine converters are removed from wind turbines and are installed on intermediate oshore platforms. Thus, many turbines may be controlled by only few power converters, dening clusters. All wind turbines in a cluster operate at the same cluster optimal frequency. This approach is cheaper in terms of capital cost savings than having individual power converters integrated in wind turbines because less components must be installed and maintained. At the same time, it gives enough exibility to turbines to still operate with high power eciency. The generated power in turbines is transmitted with alternating current to AC/DC power converters. In addition, power from AC/DC converters is transmitted in direct current to a single large high voltage direct current converter, which transmits power to the onshore collection grid. |
