  1. 1. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

  2. 2. Decarbonisation of service vessels in offshore wind power through power-to-X self-sufficiency

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Clemens Kellander; Ludvig Fredriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Alternative fuels; compressed hydrogen; battery; production; energy storage; operation and maintenance; O M; offshore; wind power; service vessel; crew transfer vessel; CTV; service operations vessel; SOV; decarbonisation; global warming potential; life cycle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report examines the possibilities of decarbonising operation & maintenance vessels for a prospective floating offshore wind power park at the Utsira Nord site in Norway, through self-sufficient energy carrier production utilizing power-to-X-solutions. Possible alternative fuels are identified as compressed hydrogen, batteries, liquid hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, and biofuels, out of which the former two are the subject for thorough investigation in this report.
