Zone model for the offshore wind industry
ISO STANDARDISATION The relevant technical committee of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has adopted a working draft for standardisation of a new zone codification model for offshore wind energy farms. The model was designed as part of a bachelor’s degree paper submitted to the Lübeck University of Applied Sciences and prepared in close collaboration with the working groups of the German Institute for Standardisation’s (DIN) Shipbuilding and Marine Technology Standards Committee (NSMT) in Hamburg. The following article was written by Dr Jens U. Jendrossek, project manager of the NSMT, and René Raden, business engineer at Tactical Air Force Wing 51 “I” in Schleswig-Jagel, Germany.
