Campbell Scientific Inc. (CSI), with more than 35 years of world-class measurement equipment experience, has today announced the selection of wind lidar system ZephIR 300 as the company’s remote sensing solution for providing the US wind energy market with accurate wind data across all stages of a wind farm development project.
ZephIR 300, provided by Zephir Ltd., a subsidiary of renewable energy group Natural Power, has demonstrated high quality measurements across many hundreds of deploymen... [more]
SeaRoc has announced it will project-manage the supply, installation and commissioning of two lattice meteorological towers in accordance with a specification provided by Forewind – the consortium responsible for developing UK Round 3 offshore wind farm site Dogger Bank.
The announcement is part of a wider offering by Fred Olsen United AS to supply Forewind with the innovative suction bucket foundation designed by Universal Foundation A/S, and fabricated by Belfast shipyard Harland and Wolff... [more]
Natural Power's dual-mode ZephIR 300 wind lidar can be used in a traditional ground based application pointing vertically for wind resource assessment, or directed in front or behind a wind turbine to study incident wind fields and resulting turbine wakes.
This new platform of wind lidar – a ‘dual-mode’ ZephIR 300 – was designed and developed by Natural Power to meet Centre for Wind Energy Technology (CWET)'s requirements to assess a range of wind measurements.
Two variations of ZephIR so... [more]
Natural Power's ZephIR 300 – a lidar system for measuring wind speed and characteristics from ground level up to 200 metres - has been tested in LM Windpower’s wind tunnel in Denmark and successfully measured wind speeds from 5m/s to 75 m/s with an averaged difference of just 0.4% for a sustained period of time and across all measured speeds.
Natural Power has demonstrated matched performance of its continuous wave wind lidar, ZephIR, to a calibrated wind tunnel as part of a Danish National ... [more]
The Forewind consortium (RWE npower renewables, SSE, Statoil and Statkraft) have selected Natural Power’s ZephIR 300 to provide the first high-quality wind data measurements in close proximity to the Dogger Bank Zone – the largest of the UK’s Round 3 zones with the potential for up to 13GW of installed capacity. The first of various consents required for the Dogger Bank project is anticipated around late 2014.
Wind resource assessment lidar ZephIR 300, a Natural Power product, has been deploy... [more]
Following a four-year development effort, GE has now introduced a new membrane bioreactor (MBR) wastewater treatment technology called LEAP*mbr, which addresses pressing water quality and operational cost issues faced by owners of municipal, industrial and residential water/wastewater treatment facilities worldwide.
The new LEAPmbr system offers the lowest lifecycle costs available from any MBR technology, while also being cost-competitive with conventional treatment. These cost savings, alon... [more]
