  • Abstract
    The innovative renewable energy conversion system called ldquoHybrid Offshore-wind and Tidal Turbinerdquo (HOTT) Conversion was proposed. The research includes tidal turbine and offshore-wind turbine, new turbine designs, turbine control of tidal energy and offshore-wind energy absorption, hydrodynamic characteristics, energy conversion, overall design methods, moorings and foundation and system resonance. HOTT will be entire five turbines, four turbines will be tidal turbine and one turbine will offshore- wind turbine arrangement. A hybrid simulation model has been developed to support studies of the dynamic interaction between tidal and offshore-wind power system to which they are connected. Environmental impact is becoming a key issue in gaining consents for energy projects HOTT technology is believed to have minimal environmental impact and rotor speeds are low enough to enable marine wild life to avoid being harmed by it. This paper pre-concludes that the HOTT on the ocean is logically possible and will lead to a reduction in the cost of electricity to the customers and new-renewable energy.
