Thomaz et al.
… Of the cost centres that combine to result in Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE), O&M costs play a significant part. Several developers have calculated component costs, demonstrating how they can become commercially competitive with other forms of renewable energy. However, there are uncertainties relating to the O&M figures that can only …

… decades, offshore renewable energy is expected to play a crucial role in the decarbonisation of global electricity supply essential for limiting anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions to an acceptable level. The cost of utilising expensive vessels to install and maintain these marine energy devices represents a significant proportion of their life-cycle cost and one of the major barriers to their continued development. It is …

Hudson et al.
… Installation, operations and maintenance costs represent one of the major barriers to the growth of wave and tidal-stream energy projects and a cost that can be significantly reduced in offshore … strategies can help minimise these costs. To achieve realistic and comprehensive estimates of project duration using these tools, it is essential to represent accurately the durations and …

Mueller and Baker
… stream devices, into electricity using direct drive electrical power take-off, without use of complex pneumatic, hydraulic or other mechanical linkages. In order to demonstrate the issues, two alternative topologies of linear electrical machines are investigated: the linear vernier hybrid permanent magnet … machine and the air-cored tubular permanent magnet machine. The electrical characteristics of these machines are described and compared in the context of mechanical integration. Potential …
- Conference Paper:
Teillant et al.
… This paper describes a methodology for the development of a numerical tool for the lifecycle logistics optimization of ocean energy arrays. Within the frame of the DTOcean European project, an innovative approach to select the best combination of ports, …

… today. Europe’s ocean energy resource is considerable. By 2050, ocean energy can deliver 100GW of capacity – equivalent to 10% of Europe’s electricity consumption today. Flexible and predictable, ocean energy complements … Europe’s technological advantage in ocean energy will ensure European companies a large share of a strong global market, as they do on offshore wind. With zero carbon emissions, ocean energy …

Yang et al.
… Deliverable D6.3 “Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Survivability – alpha version” of the DTOceanPlus project include the details of the Assessment Design Tools module: “Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Survivability” (RAMS), and it presents the result of the work developed during the tasks T6.2 and T6.4 of the project. This document serves as the …
- Journal Article:
Gray et al.
… Estimates for lifetime costs of wave energy arrays are difficult to obtain due to the uncertainty surrounding weather windows … An operations & maintenance (O&M) simulation tool has been used to assess the sensitivity of WEC failure rates on the profitability of a wave farm, with the Pelamis P2 device used as a case study. Two offshore wave energy sites …
- Journal Article:
Dias et al.
… The development of new wave energy converters has shed light on a number of unanswered questions in fluid mechanics, but has also identified a number of new issues of importance for their future deployment. The main concerns relevant to the …
- Report:
Hodges et al.
… Nations across the world recognise the potential benefits of ocean renewable energy, pursuing the development of new technologies and projects to take advantage of their natural resources. Wave and tidal stream projects, and the associated technology, have …
