Wind measurement system supports investments in wind energy

By Paul Dvorak | August 9, 2011

Clients can own or lease the equipment, or use it as a complete service with Vaisala managing it, collecting, and reporting the data as per customer needs.

The Vaisala WTS Wind Measurement System is for wind resource assessment, power curve measurement, and monitoring operational wind farms. It lets clients understand and manage the impact that weather has on operations and business, and as a result make better decisions.

The measuring equipment includes five configurations which offer clients a choice of features. These include a cold climate option, which ensures performance in the harshest weather conditions, and an option which employs sensors designed to last more than 20 years, and is largely maintenance free.

Each Wind Measurement System includes a combination of sensors, which provide accuracy and quality with low life-cycle costs, a world class data logging system, power supply, and a tower. Vaisala also offers a full suite of installation and support services, which coupled with partner offerings create a turn-key observation system that maximizes data availability, and supports financial analysis and reporting, including energy yield analysis.
