“… 29 Moreover, there are few environmental assessments for emerging technologies, like superconducting generators, 30 new fiber technologies 31 in blades, hybrid tower concepts, 32 and spar, and TLP floating foundations. 33 Further, potentially important life cycle phases such as the installation, maintenance, and EoL recycling are not well captured in the typical reference life cycle inventory (LCI) data sets (e.g., ecoinvent 1–3 MW, and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) 5 MW). 34 Background system changes, such as the energy transition, are also not commonly considered 5 , 7 , 9 , 13 − 15 , 17 , 19 , 20 , 23 , 25 or not sufficiently and transparently described in the literature.…”
