International Journal of Advanced Innovative Technology in Engineering (IJAITE)Lifecycle Analysis of Wind Turbines: Environmental Footprint and Sustainability Dr. Ravindra W. Parankar, Pravin A. Sapane Abstract : This paper presents a comprehensive lifecycle analysis of wind turbines, examining their environmental footprint and sustainability. The analysis covers the entire lifecycle of wind turbines, from manufacturing to decommissioning, and assesses the carbon emissions, material use, recycling potential, and overall environmental benefits. By understanding the environmental impacts at each stage of the lifecycle, we can identify opportunities for improvements and develop strategies to enhance the sustainability of wind energy. The study also includes case studies of existing wind farms to provide real-world insights and practical examples of how wind energy can contribute to a sustainable future. This analysis highlights the importance of wind energy in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change, while also addressing the challenges and opportunities for further advancements in the field. The findings of this study can inform policymakers, industry stakeholders, and researchers, paving the way for more sustainable and environmentally-friendly wind energy solutions. Keywords :
