Ice Navigation in Arctic Offshore Wind Parks: Traffic Coordination Using Route Exchange and Moving Havens

New areas for the production of fossil-free renewable offshore energy production are planned in Arctic waters in the Bay of Bothnia, in the very north of the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Finland. These are waters normally covered with 30–60 cm of ice every winter and shipping is carried out with ic...

Description
Summary:New areas for the production of fossil-free renewable offshore energy production are planned in Arctic waters in the Bay of Bothnia, in the very north of the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Finland. These are waters normally covered with 30–60 cm of ice every winter and shipping is carried out with icebreaker assistance. This article suggests the need for research on the wind turbine’s effect on ice behavior and ice navigation. Some concepts from previous research are suggested as a solution.
