In this paper the concept of eco-maintenance is presented. The concept aims to improve lifetime while minimising environmental impact over the entire life cycle to ensure maximum performance. Offshore wind farms are subjected to severe weather conditions, which limits the vessels capabilities to access the wind farms. The interest of this paper is the investigation of the optimal maintenance strategy for different offshore wind farms. This objective is achieved by implementing a simulation model which includes, weather and failure analysis as well as operation and maintenance. This paper shows how different maintenance strategies can influence the environmental performance of a wind farm.

本文提出了生态维护的概念。该概念旨在延长使用寿命，同时最大限度地减少整个生命周期对环境的影响，以确保最佳性能。海上风电场受到恶劣天气条件的影响，这限制了船只进入风电场的能力。本文的兴趣是研究不同海上风电场的最佳维护策略。这一目标是通过实施一个仿真模型来实现的，该模型包括天气和故障分析以及操作和维护。本文展示了不同的维护策略如何影响风电场的环境绩效。
