The connection of offshore wind requires expensive infrastructure. The development of such infrastructure can be calculated through the use of a techno-economic optimization routine. This paper investigates how two completely different geographic locations, Belgian North Sea and the Indian Cambay wind zones compare. The optimization is formulated as a sequential Mixed Integer linear Program (MILP) considering both AC and DC technology as well as a number of different voltage levels for both technologies. For AC connections, the possibility of mid-point compensation is included. The optimization software utilized is developed in the Julia language at CG Holdings Belgium. In the results section, two optimal topologies are described, one for each analyzed offshore wind power zone. The topologies include the optimal voltage levels, locations of Offshore Substations (OSSs) and transformer and cabling ratings for the transmission grid.
