Among renewable energy sources derived from the ocean, wind power has developed rapidly. This article proposes an optimization algorithm framework that integrates two objectives: aerodynamic shape optimization and structural optimization. For practical reasons, the 5−MW wind turbine blade was selected as the research object, and the sea conditions near the East China Sea were chosen as the environmental parameters for its service environment. The FAST simulation software was employed for verification purposes. The results indicated that the optimized blade not only meets the target power output but also possesses unique economic advantages, such as being lightweight and exhibiting low aerodynamic force.
