Abstract

Offshore wind is renewable, clean, and widely distributed. Therefore, the utilization of offshore wind power can potentially satisfy the increasing energy demand and circumvent the dependence on fossil energy. Thus, offshore wind power is an edge tool for achieving sustainable energy development because of its potential in large-scale energy supply and its important role in reducing environmental pollution as well as carbon emission brought by fossil energy. The worldwide development of offshore wind power has entered the era of large-scale research and commercial application. It displays a trend of rapid development, continuous technological breakthroughs, and high-speed market growth. This article systematically introduces the structural components and technical characteristics of offshore wind power. Moreover, the current developmental status of offshore wind power is summarized. By reviewing the current development and application status of offshore wind power technology worldwide, large wind turbines and fixed and floating offshore wind power technologies are analyzed. Additionally, the development of the offshore wind energy market is overviewed. The policy condition and key aspects such as the construction, operation, and maintenance of offshore wind power plants are also summarized. Finally, the prospective challenges and development trends of offshore wind power and its significance in achieving sustainable society development are proposed. We consider that the article can provide reference and inspiration for researchers and developers dedicated to offshore wind power.
