Dynamic behaviour and power performance of a Septon semisubmersible floating wind turbine integrated with wave energy converters.

ABSTRACT: The development of renewable energy sources is inevitable to create a sustainable society for the future. Hybrid wind and wave energy systems are highly regarded as a solution to reduce the cost of energy from offshore wind and waves. The manuscript presents a novel semi-submersible floating wind platform referred to as Septon which is designed with the intention of hosting a multitude of wave energy devices in addition to a wind turbine. Three different wave energy converters (WEC) namely oscillating water column, Torus and point absorber along with their combinations with the Septon platform are considered in the study to understand the dynamic behaviour and power absorption of standalone and integrated configuration. Seven different configurations of the hybrid system are considered for
