Use advice for data set
| When utilizing this dataset, researchers and engineers should consider the entire life cycle of the wind power system, including the production, transportation, installation, power generation, maintenance, and end-of-life recycling and disposal of the turbines. The non-renewable energy inputs across all stages of the system's life should be accounted for accordingly. For accurate modeling and assessment, it is important to include raw material and fossil fuel consumption, as well as associated emissions, in the life cycle process. Users should take into account the environmental and economic benefits for a complete evaluation, relying on established life cycle assessment methodologies and focusing on CO2, SO2, NOX, and PM10 emissions as environmental performance indicators and the monetary value of electricity generated as the cost-effectiveness indicator. |
Technical purpose of product or process
| The 1.25 MW wind turbine towers manufactured in this industrial process are intended for use in wind farm systems for the generation of renewable energy.
