Abstract

In this chapter a review of the key technology components that can be directly associated with FOWTs is presented. The main options for the key technology component that make up a FOWT are discussed in detail, namely the types of support structures (Sect. 1), wind turbines (Sect. 2) and mooring systems (Sect. 3). The main objective of this chapter is to provide the reader with a clear overview of the relative advantages and disadvantages of each key design option.
