RESOURCE MEASUREMENT
RESOURCE MEASUREMENT
Resource Assessment
We provide comprehensive, bankable, wind and solar resource measurement campaigns routinely with data recovery rates above 95%. We understand that errors at the stage of resource assessment will propagate through the project and be with the client to the end of the project life.
From proper installation and alignment of instruments to proper measurement and recording of
data, we put extreme care into ensuring the error in measurement is as little as possible. We ensure that our wind measurement campaigns are thorough, compliant with IEC 61400-12-1 and MEASNET requirements, and will stand up to the scrutiny of lenders. We can perform wind measurement with wind masts or with Lidars.
For solar measurement we use industry-standard solar masts with pyranometers and pyrheliometers, as well as solar tracking devices.
We continually monitor clients’ resource measurement to ensure that they are on track. We train and work with local personnel to provide necessary day-to-day tasks, such as cleaning or minor interventions. Our aim for stations to operate without error, for errors to be detected as rapidly as possible and corrected. We provide a bankable installation report that has been accepted by major international financiers for every installation.
We often have equipment in-stock and ready to deploy it which allows us to start campaigns with minimal delay and provide rapid repairs to ensure maximal data recovery.

Performance and Power Curve Measurement
We provide a complete power curve measurement in compliance with IEC 61400-12-1. We supply, install and conduct measurements using MEASNET calibrated instruments. We can sell or rent measurement equipment for the calibration and reference masts for the power curve measurement.
• Supply, installation, operation, maintenance and decommissioning of calibration and reference masts
• Site calibration
• Measurement campaign consultations and site evaluation
• Issuance of power curve measurement report
Performance Monitoring
Once a plant is commissioned, in-depth performance monitoring allows an owner to maximize outputs, optimize maintenance, reduce and predict spare parts, and crucially, identify any defects before the expiry of a warranty period. It also allows the owners to have an independent assessment of the performance of their asset.
• Installation of industry-leading software for in-depth monitoring of plant parameters
• Remote monitoring of plant performance
• Prediction of required maintenance
• Evaluation of plant and operator performance
