Offshore renewable energy such as tidal, wave and offshore wind is an increasingly important part of the UK energy supply. However, there are challenges when it comes to operating in an offshore environment. Cable infrastructure can be vulnerable to being dragged or worn. Installation, repair and maintenance operations are all costly. The cable transmission capacity can limit the amount of energy taken from a device or device array.This project seeks to investigate the feasibility of two types of sensor technology measuring a wide range of cable parameters, that can operate over the optical communications fibre that is already present in mostpower cables. These systems can provide real time monitoring of electrical performance and also the physical condition of offshore cabling infrastructure. The expected outcome from the project are sensor subsystem designs that have been validated in the laboratory and in samples of marine power cable at partner test sites.This will allow the UK team to move forward to larger scale development and testing with a core of large industry partners

潮汐、波浪和海上风能等海上可再生能源是英国能源供应中越来越重要的一部分。然而，在海上环境中运营时存在挑战。电缆基础设施可能容易受到拖拽或磨损。安装、维修和维护操作都是昂贵的。电缆的传输能力可以限制从设备或设备阵列中获取的能量。该项目旨在研究两种类型的传感器技术的可行性，这些传感器技术可以测量大范围的电缆参数，这些参数可以在大多数电力电缆中已经存在的光学通信光纤上运行。这些系统可以提供电气性能的真实的实时监控以及海上电缆基础设施的物理状况。该项目的预期成果是传感器子系统设计已在实验室和合作伙伴测试场地的船用电力电缆样品中得到验证。这将使英国团队能够与大型行业合作伙伴一起进行更大规模的开发和测试
