Offshore Wind: A Comprehensive Guide to Successful Offshore Wind Farm Installation

Offshore Wind: A Comprehensive Guide to Successful Offshore Wind Farm Installation by Kurt Thomsen
Els evier | 2011 | ISBN: 0123859360 | 352 pages | PDF | 19,1 MB

Offshore wind is the new blue horizon for Alternative Energy. One small offshore wind farm can produce more power than a whole coal plant, or a nuclear reactor. However, very few people have real experience getting an offshore wind farm up and running. This book is the first-ever roadmap to successful offshore wind installation. 
It provides a ready reference for wind project managers, teaching them how to deal with complications on-site, as well as for financers, who can utilize the text as an easy guide to asking the pivotal questions of petitioning wind project developers, whose planning stages will be improved by the book's expert advice on how to avoid wasting money by scoping out and mitigating potential problems up-front. Wind turbine manufacturers will benefit from insights into design optimization to support cheaper installation and hauling, thereby incurring lower project costs, and helping developers establish a quicker route to profitability. The book sheds light not just on HOW to solve a particul installation difficulty, but delves into WHY the problem may best be solved in that way. Readers will learn not just how to build successful offshore wind farms, but how to do so in the most safe and economical way possible.

Enables all stakeholders to achieve cheaper, faster and safer offshore wind project
realization

Explains the different approaches to executing on- and offshore projects, highlighting the
economic impacts of the various financial and operational choices

Provides practical, proven advice on how tough challenges can be overcome,
using real-life examples from the author's experiences to illustrate key issues

Wind Power Generation and Wind Turbine Design

WI,T Press | 2010 | ISBN: 1845642058 | 768 pages | PDF | 17,2 MB

Along with rising energy demand in the 21st century and the growing recognition of global warming and environmental pollution, energy supply has become an integral and cross cutting element of every countrys economy. In recent years, more and more countries have prioritized sustainable, renewable, and clean energy sources such as wind, solar, hydropower, biomass, etc., as the replacements for fossil fuels.
Wind power is the fastest growing alternative energy segment, providing an attractive cost structure relative to other alternative energy. Wind energy has played a significant role in North American and European countries, and some developing countries such as China and India. In 2009, over 37 GW of new wind capacity were installed over the world, bringing the total wind capacity to 158 GW. There is no doubt that wind power will play a major role as the world moves towards a sustainable energy future.
