The paper starts with an overview about the German offshore wind energy market and the expected future development. To reach a high availability of the turbines, the right amount of spare parts is needed and therefore the authors introduce a tool to forecast the quantity / type of spare parts by a given availability and maintenance strategy. In this context essential terms as reliability, availability, maintenance and service are described.enoffshore-windenergyspare partsforecastinglogistics658338presentation
