An offshore renewable energy system mounting platform is provided for positioning a renewable energy converter in a body of water. The platform includes a frame having a first structural member and a second structural member that are positioned adjacent one another at a mating connection and at least one mooring member affixed to the frame at a tethering location which is tethers the frame to a bed of the body of water. Either the first or second structural members comprises a buoyancy and a tension in the mooring member is arranged to counteract the buoyancy to urge the first and second structural members together at the mating connection. The platform may be manufactured as a set of pre-fabricated modular components which are subsequently assembled into the complete platform.
