Around the world wind energy is starting to become a major energy provider in electricity
markets, as well as participating in ancillary services markets to help maintain grid stability …

Wind power continues to be the fastest growing source of renewable energy. This paper is
concerned with the timing of offshore turbine maintenance for a turbine that is no longer …

Wind power is highly dependent on wind speed and operations offshore are affected by
wave height; these together called turbine weather datasets that are variable and …

Improving access is a priority in the offshore wind sector, driven by the opportunity to
increase revenues, reduce costs, and improve safety at operational wind farms. This paper …

With the growing demand for offshore wind energy and the continued drive for reduced
levelised cost of energy, it is necessary to make operation and maintenance activities more …

Estimating maritime climate accurately is essential to ensure the safety of marine structures.
The most reliable data are in situ measurements, but due to the lack of this kind of data in …
