To study the impact of the foundation structures of offshore wind energy plant on hydrodynamic conditions, a 2-D hydrodynamic numerical model was developed, including the Yangtze Estuary and the Hangzhou Bay. The results show that the influence is related with the characteristics of tidal current and the arrangement of foundation structures. As far as the Shanghai Offshore wind power stations are concerned, the impact on the tidal currents is limited in the region around the structures.
