Abstract

Disclosed is an offshore hybrid wind-wave power plant, which includes, inter alia, a base substructure that has a tubular support element that defines an internal chamber. At least one water inlet is formed in the base substructure and is positioned below mean water level such that a water column level within the internal chamber oscillates with each passing wave. The offshore hybrid wind-wave power plant of the present invention also includes a wind turbine for generating wind power. The wind turbine is supported by a tower structure that extends vertically from the base substructure. Moreover, a generator is operatively associated with the internal chamber defined in the base substructure such that the generator creates power based on the oscillating water column within the base structure.
