1. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)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. The Paradigm Shift for Substations Technology within Wind Power Applications from Onshore to Floating
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Floating wind turbines are attracting more attention as more than three-quarters of the total offshore technical potential is located in deep water, leading to a growing trend in floating wind farm projects. Consequently, it becomes necessary to develop Floating Offshore Substation (FOSS) to step up voltage and efficiently transmit power to the shore with minimal losses. READ MORE

3. Climate Impact of Wind Turbine Production : Emissions from Material and Energy Usage for Onshore and Offshore Wind Turbines
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Wind power is a renewable energy source that is making great strides in the global energy sector. While wind power is a renewable energy source, it is not entirely free from carbon emissions. This is because the production of wind turbines is dependent on the use of energy, and as a result can emit large amounts of carbon dioxide. READ MORE

4. Evaluating electrolyser setups for hydrogen production from offshore wind power : A case study in the Baltic Sea
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : As part of the transition towards a fully sustainable energy system, green hydrogen shows great potential to decarbonise several hard-to-abate sectors. To provide the fossil-free electricity required for electrolysis, offshore wind power has emerged as a suggested option. READ MORE

5. Impact of offtake mechanisms on wind turbine selection and design in North and Central Europe
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Wind power has become a major supplier of electricity in the European market in the last years. In 2020, 13% of electricity generated on the European continent was wind energy (onshore and offshore) and these shares are projected to increase in the next years due to reasons such as climate change and the energy security aspect.
