 Abstract   A tool for Evaluation of Configuration of Offshore Windparks is suggested and models of the components studied. Several methods to collect the power can be distinguished and the designer has to evaluate the technical and economical properties of several different configurations. The transmission of the electric power to shore and concepts for the electrical system of offshore wind farms are evaluated with respect to costs due to losses, and energy yield. Both string and star cluster formation and the different types of coupling of variable and constant speed generators are considered. The interest lies primarily in identifying farm configurations with a low cost profile and high efficiency. Case study for a 500MW park for two different locations is presented.
