Wind Resource Assessment

Wind Resource Assessment (WRA) is the systematic collection of wind data at a potential wind farm site. Measurements of a variety of meteorological parameters are typically taken over the course of several years using a combination of met towers and Lidar.

Wind farm developers are able to estimate the future power output of a variety of wind farm sizes and turbine arrangements, and they use this information to design the layout of the wind farm, secure project financing, and make other vital decisions.

Building on over 40 years of experience, NRG designs complete wind resource assessment systems and instruments that work together seamlessly and suit a variety of climates, terrains, and applications.
