Definitions

• the invention relates to an offshore installation of a wind farm.
• Conversion station is transported by a submarine cable to the land transfer station.
• different conversion processes or Energybergertra ⁇ transmission method makes sense (for example, greater dis- tances from the country via high voltage direct current). Especially with greater distance from land, but the question arises for maintenance and repair of wind turbines themselves.
• the invention has for its object to provide an improved solution for service and / or maintenance of wind farms.
• This object is achieved by an offshore installation of a wind farm with at least one service unit for the purpose of maintenance and / or repair of wind farm installations.
• the solution according to the invention eliminates the need for the expensive motherships, since functionalities for service and / or maintenance are integrated into at least one offshore installation of the wind farm at comparatively low cost. This integration of further functions results in an improvement of the maintenance situation of offshore wind farms and thus a cost saving in their production and in particular operation.
• At least one service unit as a storage unit for spare parts out ⁇ forms.
• at least the key can be kept on site He spare parts ⁇ so that at least the required for routine maintenance parts are definitely available and need not be delivered consuming only at the wind farm, for example, if only noticeable during maintenance that parts need to be replaced.
• a service unit as a loading and unloading unit with at ⁇ least one crane is at least formed. This makes loading and unloading ⁇ considerably facilitates loading of transport vessels that INS is particularly advantageous if the offshore installation ei ⁇ ne bearing unit has to be filled, for example, at regular intervals.
• At least one service unit is designed as an accommodation unit. This is suitable at least for the temporary accommodation of staff, so that longer maintenance and / or Repa ⁇ raturwith can be done easily without a supply ship must be on constantly.
• an accommodation unit can of course also serve as an emergency shelter, for example in the case of an approaching storm, for the service crew.
• At least one service unit is provided as a small-unit provisioning unit
• the offshore installation is designed as a wind energy plant. Even in the presence of no or only one submarine unit for bundling and transmission of energy generated by the wind farm on land, the advantages of the erfindungsge ⁇ Maänch solution that surpass the additional costs in the production of a properly equipped wind turbine, for the operation of the wind farm incurred maintenance and repair work.
• the offshore installation is designed as a platform for bundling and / or transmitting energy generated by wind turbines.
• platforms usually have a size in which at least one storage unit can be easily installed without significant additional costs. Possibly. required additional costs for an enlarged design and / or the additional equipment features such as a crane will quickly amortize due to the already described reduced effort during operation.
• HVDC high-voltage direct current transmission
• the invention relates to an offshore installation of a wind farm.
• an offshore installation of a wind farm with at least one service unit for purposes of War ⁇ processing and / or repair of installations of the wind farm equip is proposed th.
