Advancing Offshore Wind Solutions for a Sustainable Future

Offshore wind energy is crucial for the global transition to renewables, with Singapore's Marine & Offshore sector exploring floating wind opportunities to meet rising demand. A*STAR develops advanced computational tools to support these projects, using the COAWST framework to analyse metocean conditions for wind farm site selection and power output prediction. High-fidelity CFD studies validate turbine performance, while wake flow field research improves empirical wake models for accuracy.
