Combined AHP-GIS methodology for floating offshore wind site selection in South Africa (2024)
Journal Article
Umoh, K., Hasan, A., & Kenjegaliev, A. (2025). Combined AHP-GIS methodology for floating offshore wind site selection in South Africa. Ocean engineering, 317, Article 120037. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2024.120037

A sustainable approach to site selection can enhance the techno-economic feasibility of floating wind projects. This is because site selection is a multicriteria problem including technical, environmental, social, and economic factors. The issue is m...

Assessment of the locational potential of floating offshore wind energy in South Africa (2024)
Journal Article
Umoh, K., Hasan, A., Kenjegaliev, A., & Al-Qattan, A. (2024). Assessment of the locational potential of floating offshore wind energy in South Africa. Sustainable Energy Research, 11, Article 12. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40807-024-00104-4

Expanding floating wind into new markets could support emission reduction targets in several national contexts. It furthers the need for adequate assessments to gain a full understanding of the technology’s potential in future markets. South Africa i...
