This report is a comprehensive description of the environmental impacts related to operations and maintenance. All marine operations related to inspection, maintenance and repair lead to environmental impacts due to vessel traffic, noise emissions, handling of mooring lines, anchors and cables, etc.
-
This report details the algorithms for implementation of the effects of array changes on device cost
-
This document extensively reviews the key offshore logistics operations driving the development of an array of wave or tidal energy devices. A large amount of information with relevance for the development of the DTOcean lifecycle logistics module was compiled in a systematic approach.
-
With the DTOcean software at an important stage in its development, the first of two training workshops foreseen by the project was organised on 5 May 2015, in Glasgow, alongside the All-Energy conference. The workshop was organised with the following goals in mind: validate decisions taken to date with industry stakeholders; generate feedback which will further align the tool with industry needs; and promote the DTOcean tool and enhance its eventual uptake as a result
-
This deliverable includes the proposed logistic model architecture in terms of flow charts, including data flows within the model and with other DTOcean modules and external databases and tools.
-
This deliverable is a review of existing approaches and methodologies for the analysis of ocean energy arrays with a clear focus on the results and conclusions provided by previous experiences. The key outcome is the definition of quantifiable and qualitative metrics for economic viability, reliability and environmental impact which have been adopted in the global set of tools developed within the project DTOcean
-
The objectives of the DTOcean project were: • To accelerate the industrial development of knowledge related to wave and tidal energy production. • To provide design tools for the deployment of the first generation of ocean energy systems.

This deliverable presents the 1st report on dissemination and communication activities. It is a did term review

Marine renewable energy systems involve single or arrays of devices that are secured to the seafloor via foundations and/or anchors. These MRE devices will transmit long-term cyclic loads to the seafloor sediment or rock, which may affect seafloor material properties and hence the overall physical performance of the MRE system. The response of seafloor sediments or rock formations is uncertain for the novel MRE systems and especially large arrays of 10s to >1000s of devices. This report summarizes critical inputs and tools for the design and analysis of foundations, anchors, and the response of the seafloor materials

This report consists of a comprehensive description of the logistic functions and associated logistical model forming the installation module developed within the frame of the global DTOcean tool. The overriding goal is to disclose the structure and content of the installation module
