Offshore Substation Design Methodology
======================================

For details of the code implementation, please see
:doc:`Offshore Substation Design API <api_OffshoreSubstationDesign>`.

Overview
--------

The offshore substation design module in ORBIT is based on previous modeling
efforts undertaken by NREL, [#maness2017]_. A detailed description of the
model and its functionality can be found in the ORBIT technical
documentation (Coming soon!).
