Reconversion of the shipbuilding sector: from production by project to mass production. What is its effect on the LCOE of a wave energy farm?

Abstract

The objective of this work has been to analyze the variation of different economic parameters (Levelized Cost Of Energy and Internal Rate of Return) for two possible ways of manufacturing: production by project to mass production. For this, 6 possible scenarios have been considered, taking into account the number of equipment manufactured and the economic parameters have been calculated in order to know which alternative provides greater economic viability, thus making the project more profitable.
