Leveraging digital innovation for more smart(er) offshore wind
O&M offer potential to achieve significant cost savings, enhance
performance and reliability.
Offshore wind energy is
one of the world's most underused resources, with less than one-tenth
of wind power based offshore. But the Global Wind Energy Council
projects that by 2023 it will account for almost one-quarter of world
wind generation.
The current pace of renewable energy
development around the world is unprecedented, with offshore wind in
particular proving to be an extremely valuable and reliable energy
source. In June 2018, it was revealed that the global portfolio of
offshore wind stood at delivering 105GW when fully constructed and also
the operation and maintenance of offshore wind farm assets accounts for
around 40 percent of the combined, undiscounted lifetime CAPEX and OPEX
costs.
Efficiencies in operations and
maintenance (O&M) offer potential to achieve significant cost
savings as it accounts for around 20% - 30% of overall offshore wind
farm costs. This effectively calls for the digitization of the offshore
wind to achieve the required optimization to enhance continuous
maintenance of the offshore wind and assets. One of such recent
innovation, is "Digital Twin" has been developed to improve the
operations and maintenance of offshore wind farms by combining
real-world turbine operating data with numerical modelling, to improve
understanding and enable a risk-based approach to maintenance
activities, thereby reducing unplanned activities, improving health and
safety and reducing costs.
Offshore Wind Operation and Maintenance Forum has
been put together to carefully explore how industry experts can
leverage the large amounts of data generated by our offshore wind farms
to introduce cost saving efficiencies to
offshore wind O&M operations.
The Forum showcases the best strategies and practices in Offshore wind
technology design, operation, maintenance and safety in order to
optimize reliability, accessibility, and vessel deployment costs.
Offshore Wind Operation and Maintenance Forum brings
together expert and professionals in Offshore wind, Renewable energy,
Offshore O&M and Green energy with the sole aim to identify key
solutions to the challenges associated with O&M Wind Offshore. The
event is aimed to effectively Highlight the core benefits in the
effective maintenance of Offshore wind Turbines, Discover the mechanics
of the clean energy production technology, Offshore O&M cost and
risk reduction strategies and finally Identify future O&M
innovation.
