Short summary
The publication of the Reference Open-Source Controller (ROSCO) provides a controller and generic controller tuning process to the wind energy research community that can perform comparably or better than existing reference wind turbine controllers and includes features that are consistent with industry standards. Notably, ROSCO provides the first known open-source controller with features that specifically address floating offshore wind turbine control.
