This paper deals with the power generation efficiency analysis of a proposed offshore wind farm topology, consisting of a SLPC (single large power converter) that simultaneously controls a group of generators. This common converter can operate at a VF (variable frequency) or at a CF (constant...

This paper deals with the analysis of power, generated by offshore wind farms, connected to a single large power converter (SLPC), operating at variable frequency (VF) or at constant frequency (CF). The results are compared with a scheme widely used in current onshore wind farms, consisting of...

The aim of this paper is to analyse, from the technical and economic point of view, the suitability of a proposed Offshore Wind Power Plant (OWPP) scheme based on removing the individual power converters of each wind turbine and connecting a turbine cluster (or an entire WPP) to a single large...
