Call for Contributions to the Special Session on
“Offshore and Marine Renewable Energy: Conversion and Transmission”
Thematic Areas: This document invites abstract proposals from industry and academic researchers involved in the field of offshore and marine energy conversion. Topics of interest in this special session include, but are not limited to:
- Concepts, component and topologies for energy conversion from offshore natural resources such as wind, waves, tides, thermal difference and salinity gradient, and hybrid solutions.
- Advanced control strategies for increased power extraction and/or improvement in power quality.
- Grid code compliance.
- Reliability, diagnostic and aging in offshore renewable energy conversion.
- Design and sizing of systems or components.
- Farm layouts and AC or DC transmission schemes for offshore renewable energy farms.
- Energy storage solutions for offshore energy applications.
- Modelling of marine resources.
- Real case studies and contributions on the state of advancement of on-going projects.
- Life cycle analysis (economical and/or environmental).
- Social acceptance and maritime governance
