TECHNICAL ANALYSIS OF THE CONNECTION OPTIONS
ECONOMIC ANALYSIS: COMPARISON OF THE CONNECTION OPTIONSO&M: operation and maintenance ENS : the value of losses and of energy not supplied
ECONOMIC ANALYSIS: COMPARISON OF THE CONNECTION OPTIONSThis especially impacts the economics of the 100-MW wind farm.Economic assessment includes sensitivity analyses of parameters, which could impact the 100-MW wind farm: distance, component costs, dc converter reliability, and dc converter losses.

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS: COMPARISON OF THE CONNECTION OPTIONS
CONCLUSIONFor all the case studies, the HVDC solution is more expensive than the ac, partly because of higher total investment costs at the considered connection distance of 60 km.Nevertheless, the results of sensitivity analyses performed for various parameters (connection distance, cost of cable protection, and cost and reliability of converter stations) show that HVDC appears to be the cheapest option to connect a 100-MW wind farm at distances greater than 90 km to the shore.CONCLUSIONEvaluations performed within this research activity and the present experience with VSC-HVDC connection of offshore oil/gas platforms allows us to believe that HVDC is a promising technology with growth potential for applications in the connection of offshore wind farms.
