Samenvatting:
The investigation of Labour safety at offshore Wind Energy
installations has been focussed on aspects like licensing, health and
safety, and labour safety influencing the wind turbine design. In other
words: are there any regulations that determine e.g. the turbine design,
or limit certain design solutions?
The investigation resulted in the following general conclusions:
- Uniform
guidelines for all European countries having an Exclusive Economic Zone
(EEZ) on the North Sea are not possible at the moment. Every country
has his own licensing authorities.
- New
HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) procedures have to be developed,
based on the existing knowledge of offshore oil companies and maintenance
companies and institutes.
- It
could not be concluded that health and safety provisions will have (limiting)
influence on the design of the offshore wind turbines. All measures,
procedures, and provisions that deal with health and safety, need to
be assessed and approved individually.
- There
is an urge to uniform offshore wind turbine access facilities and procedures.
