Logistics Scenarios for the Construction of Offshore Wind Parks

Wind energy has become an established technology for the generation of electricity from renewable energies. However, suitable sites for the installation of onshore wind turbines are limited or often already developed. Consequently, offshore wind energy will play a key role in the future of renewable energy production. Especially in implementing the turnaround of energy policy. The installation of offshore wind farms is comparatively complex and expensive due to the harsh weather conditions and the limited availability of resources. Therefore, new concepts for the construction of offshore wind parks have to be developed and evaluated. However, classical planning tools reach their limits due to such complex problems. This gap can be closed by means of a process simulation.
