TY - GEN T1 - Modelling Offshore Wind Farm Operation and Maintenance : the Benefits of Condition Monitoring A1 - Yu, Xi LA - English PP - Newcastle upon Tyne, UK PB - Cambridge Scholars Publisher YR - 2019 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_on1143396243 AB - A wind turbine is of course far more complicated than just a tower topped with a big fan, especially for the offshore ones. Wind energy as a green energy resource with zero fuel requirements, and thus no processing waste, has been assuming an increasingly important role in energy generation. Offshore wind farms with their steady output and low sensual impact have been gradually accepted by the public and authorities. Once built, the only cost for a wind farm is the operation and maintenance cost. Therefore, the question of how to reduce the failure rate and the operation and maintenance costs, OP - 346 CN - TK1541 .M65 2019 SN - 9781527545007 SN - 1527545008 SN - 1527536955 SN - 9781527536951 KW - Offshore wind power plants.
