Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment of ENDURUNS Project: Autonomous Marine Vehicles

The autonomous marine vehicles development has a grow demand by offshore industries. multiple facilities implemented in this environment requires the evolution of devices for several task as survey, maintenance or monitorization. technology complexity great efforts economics and resources to innovate. In line, ENDURUNS project purposes design an system capable performance long endurance during missions due employment renewable energies its vehicles. evaluation life cycle represents important management. article, it is exposed three different aspects. aspect analyzed are social assessment, cost assessment. It been applied corresponding standards European context develop each methodology obtain results. Thus, work brings approach about environment, economic impact project. results presented from study can be considered practitioners future research mobility field, sustainability characteristics analyzed.
