Solar and wind energy installations present unique safety challenges due to their remote locations, high voltage systems, and the integration of mechanical and electrical components.
Although some of the identified risk factors, such as communication, safety culture, and education, are common in various contexts, they are equally important in the handling operations of wind power system components in ports.
Conclusion and recommendations The handling of components for offshore wind power system in ports poses high potential risks due to the large-scale, non-standard, and vulnerable nature of the components, their size, weight, and vulnerability, as well as the involvement of multiple complex interfaces and synchronized operations.
However, transporting and handling these large-scale, non-standard, and vulnerable components of offshore wind power system pose significant safety risks for frontline workers involved in port activities.
Therefore, effective safety management and comprehensive risk management plans are crucial to prevent accidents. Given the limited literature on the risks associated with offshore wind power component handling in ports, this study provides a risk analysis framework and valuable insights for risk assessment and management in the industry.
