Abstract
The ever-increasing need for larger energy production and for a reduction of dependency on fossil fuels, in favor of renewable energies, has led to the pursuit of new concepts that can exploit natural resources efficiently. In this scenario, offshore wind-wave hybrid platforms have been recently promoted: sharing facilities, infrastructure, and grid connections, gives them the potential to increase energy production at a lower cost. However, an efficient realisation of these two combined technologies requires two potentially conflicting control objectives: on the one hand, for the wind turbine, a reduced movement of the platform is required, which essentially translates to enhanced stability of the structure, so that its behavior resembles standard onshore wind technologies.
On the other hand, to maximize the energy produced, wave energy converters (WECs) require optimal control technology which often leads to large amplitude motion, potentially conflicting with the stability required for the wind turbine
