Description
This dataset represents the average power generation situation of offshore wind power in China. Its data are obtained by weighted aggregation of the production datasets of Tianjin, Hebei, Liaoning, Shanghai, Jiangsu and other provinces (regions, municipalities). The offshore wind power technology here uses wind turbines of average scale, and the technical details can be referred to the turbine production dataset. For the production datasets of specific regions, the on-grid electricity of the turbines is determined according to the local grid-connected installed capacity and utilization hours. The wind farm life is set according to official specification standards, namely the technical service life of onshore wind farms is 20 years and that of offshore wind farms is 25 years. The data are mainly sourced from official statistics and public literature.
Activity Description
The system boundary covers the entire operation and maintenance stage of offshore wind farms, including the use of lubricants for wind-turbine maintenance and equipment replacement.
Process Description
The product is grid-connected power in kWh, with a voltage level of ≥35 kV.
