Wind Energy Studies

WESTON has the experienced staff to perform wind energy studies. Capabilities include collecting real-time on-site wind data at multiple levels, calculating wind power, data management and statistical analysis. WESTON can assist with site selection, permitting, and installation.

Air services personnel performed a one year on-site assessment confirming the necessary wind power resources existed. A Doppler SODAR remote sensing unit measured winds at the height of the proposed turbine and a collocated meteorological tower provided surface-level meteorological data. Read More
