Short summary
This paper presents the idea of centralized electricity production in a wind farm by means of water technology. A new way of generating and transmitting wind energy is explored with no intermediate electrical conversion until the energy has reached the central offshore platform. This work includes the modelling and simulations of a hypothetical hydraulic wind farm, where results indicate good performance despite the turbulent wind conditions and wake effects.
