Abstract As the share of renewable energy sources in the energy mix increases, weather -dependent variations in several time scales will have a significant impact on the power system. One way of mitigating these variations is to co -locate complementary energy sources at the same location. In this study, the complementarity between offshore floating photovoltaics, wave, and wind power is analyzed and the grid impact of such co -located energy sources is addressed using capacity credit. Additionally, the possibility of installing supplementary generation capacity within existing offshore wind power farms is investigated. It is found that co -locating wave power with offshore wind results in increased capacity credit compared to stand-alone wind power farms and that in all analyzed cases, the capacity credit of the co -located energy sources exceeds the capacity credit contribution of the separate energy sources. Co -locating photovoltaics with offshore wind brings little benefit to the capacity credit, but shows potential in increasing the utilization of the transmission cable.
