If you need to measure wind speed and wind direction to help
determine whether your site is a good candidate to harvest
wind power, or for any other reason, then
Greenthinking can provide a wind analysis.
The assessment is
consists of
unattended data collection
using a calibrated anemometer on a 12m mast.

The assessment is usually carried out
over 6 or 12 months and you would be provided with a
comprehensive report showing (amongst other detail):
-
Recorded
wind distribution
-
Recorded
wind mean speed
-
Power
potential from wind turbines at your site
-
Measured
power output
-
Predicted
annual turbine output
-
Average
wind speed by direction
-
Weekly
output graphs

| The capital
outlay of a Wind Turbine is not small change for most people
and therefore the potential return should be investigated to
ensure that a wind turbine makes good economics for you. If
there is any doubt whether your Annual Mean Wind Speed
(AMWS) is high enough to justify purchasing a wind turbine
then a wind analysis is recommended. The results can then be
related to the output performance curve of the turbine in
which you are interested. |
