Impact of LEANWIND innovations Sample Clauses

Impact of LEANWIND innovations. In order to assess the impact of the LEANWIND innovations on the environmental impacts of the foundations, the results for global warming potential have been compared to those from a number of other published studies. This factor has been chosen as it is the most widely studied for offshore wind farms. All of the studies considered in this section have included the turbine as well as the foundation; however, in all but one63, the contribution of the foundations to the materials and manufacturing stage has been reported. The full life-cycle impacts of the foundations have therefore been estimated by assuming that the contribution of the foundations to the impacts of all life-cycle stages is the same as for the materials and manufacturing stage. (For the study by Xxxxxxxxxx et al.64, it has been assumed that the foundations contribute 68% to the total life-cycle impacts, as this is the mean of the contributions found by Xxxxxx et al.65 for other types of floating foundation.) This is a pessimistic assumption, as it is likely that the maintenance impacts of the foundation will be disproportionately lower than for the moving parts of the turbine. As all different studies also estimate different capacity factors and design lives, the global warming potential has also been adjusted for the same capacity factor (40%) and design life (20 years) used in this analysis. Finally, the global warming potential per tonne of material has also been calculated where possible. Figure 39below shows how the global warming potential of the LEANWIND jacket foundation compares with estimates from other published studies. It can be seen that it is slightly lower than the median of the adjusted values, which is particularly positive when it is considered that all but one of these studies66 is considering installation in a water depth of only 25 - 30 m (compared to the 60 m design depth of the LEANWIND foundation). Xxxxxx et al.67examined the life-cycle impacts of a jacket foundation in a water depth of 50m, and estimate the impacts to be 60% higher than the LEANWIND solution. This difference may be due to the lower impacts of the floating/suction bucket design used for the LEANWIND foundation, in place of more conventional piles. It is worth noting, however, that the GWP per unit mass of the LEANWIND foundation is estimated to be significantly lower than in other analyses, and this could indicate that the impacts of maintenance and decommissioning stages have been underestimated. 6...
