Abstract :
The economy of intertidal zone wind Farm (IZWF) and the normal offshore wind farm (OWF) are compared by selecting three sites of wind farms and two installation vessel types. The opportunity cost for IZWF construction is also discussed. Through analysis finally comes to the conclusion that in current phase offshore wind farm should be developed in priority.
