Apart
from having a good wind turbine, the most critical aspects for
the success of investment in the wind energy sector are (i)
having a good site and (ii) an accurate assessment of the wind
resource at the site. Unfortunately, hardly any work has been
done In Pakistan in these areas. We, as a company, carry out.
Wind
Resource Monitoring which consists of following activities:
-
Siting
-
Wind Monitoring
- Wind
Resource Mapping
- Optimization
and Micrositing
Siting:
Identification of good windy sites is the first and most important
aspect in this business. The combination of field experience
and knowledge of the wind flow pattern, terrain, and grid etc.,
backed by the latest GIS, GPS Survey techniques and use of latest
satellite images enable the successful identification of the
good windy sites.
Wind
Monitoring:
The Wind monitoring masts are installed with required sensors
for recording accurate data, related to wind and weather. The
mast is equipped with Automatic Data Logging System. The measurements
are carried out at different levels for assessing the vertical
wind profile.
Wind
Resource Mapping:
Wind Rose Consultancy has the latest software tools for wind
flow modeling and resource mapping. Wind Resource Mapping is
critical for a given site to decide the optimized placement
of turbines resulting in maximum wind farm output.
Optimization
in Micro-Siting:
Even if we have a good site and a good wind turbine it is important
to see that the turbines are put at the right places to extract
maximum generation out of the wind farm. Wind Rose Consultancy
takes great pride to provide best services to our clients in
this regard.
