Abstract

Offshore wind power, as a key clean energy in the energy transition, has significant advantages in resource abundance and stability. However, current offshore wind turbine foundation designs face high carbon emissions, and the variability of offshore power generation easily increases the operational costs of the power system. In the design of basic structures, the chemical properties of materials have a significant impact on carbon emissions, costs and performance. However, current research lacks in-depth exploration of common directions in applied chemistry such as materials, reactions and chemical processes. This study proposes a low-carbon design of offshore wind turbine foundations and an optimization model of multi-energy complementary new energy systems based on smart grid collaboration. The experimental results indicated that after optimization with the proposed algorithm, the carbon emissions reached 2087.2 tons. The average cost of the proposed model is 7531.67 dollars, and the power balance constraint during peak load periods is satisfied at a rate of 98.51%. The supply insufficiency during low load periods is only 0.72%, and both curtailment rate and unit output exceedance occurrences are improved. These findings suggest that the proposed model was capable of achieving an effective balance between economic efficiency and environmental performance of offshore wind turbine foundations and promote low-carbon and efficient development of offshore wind power and new energy systems
