A technical and economic assessment has been made of the generation of electricity using wind turbine generators located in shallow waters off the coast of the United Kingdom. This assessment entailed studies of siting criteria, meteorology, sea surface conditions, engineering geology, construction materials, support structures, marinisation of complete WTG installations, effect of cluster configuration on performance, electrical transmission and control, availability and environmental issues. On the basis of these studies, an analysis has been made to determine economic and performance trends of clusters of up 200 machines of a maximum of 10 MW individual generating capacity. Generating costs based on central values in the ranges of the design parameters are found to exceed predicted economic value in the year 2000 by a factor of about 3, whilst with large diameter turbines and average wind speeds exceeding the central value this factor is reduced to about 2.
