The paper presents an economic cost evaluation on the feasibility of offshore wind turbine (OWT) farms development in … Nigeria, using a 500 MW OWT farm as an incident study. A developed model was used to evaluate the economic cost of the OWTs at … detectability was considered marginal. Subsequently, it can be inferred that Nigeria has the potential for OWT farm expansion …
