Besides the water rescue, using a USV can also assist surveys at the wind farm to obtain sufficient and reliable information subsea and the health condition of the turbines. It would enable better planning for just-in-time maintenance, thereby reducing the operations costs and enhancing safety.

“The failure rate of offshore wind turbines and other equipments is relatively high under harsh weather conditions. USVs would have been playing significant roles in operations and maintenance of offshore wind farms in the coming future,” according to Wang Zhihong, Head of Quality and Safety and Environmental Protection Department of CGNR Offshore Wind Farm (Jiangsu).
