In recent times, renewable resources have been increasingly exploited, with wind energy being second only to hydro and solar power. Over the last decade, thanks to technological advances, the average cost of energy has come down considerably, making this sector increasingly competitive. Although onshore wind and fixed offshore are more widespread due to their greater development and fewer technological challenges, floating offshore is also starting to progress, also thanks to the possibility of exploiting areas with good wind resources but with a deep seabed and to the possibility of reaching large sizes without visual pollution or environmental impact problems. With the development of offshore floating wind turbines (OFWT), it therefore becomes necessary to adapt control strategies, starting from conventional controllers used in the non-floating counterpart, or developing new types of control, such as those based on PID logic, or unconventional ones.
