California: Wind Farm Monitoring
The Measurement and Transmission of SmartSolo Data Recorder Meets the Data Performance Requirements

A company from California operates a wind farm with the goal of providing higher transmission reliability while controlling costs. It requires renewable energy generation facilities to report safe, real-time weather and power data.

For weather data measurement, the weather station based on SmartSolo M8000 data recorder is installed on a permanent weather tower to measure wind speed and direction at two altitudes, as well as temperature, relative humidity and air pressure.


Product overview

As a new type of green energy, wind energy has been paid more and more attention. At the same time, wind energy is an inexhaustible and clean renewable energy, which has great potential in many renewable energy sources.

Wind power industry in the world is developing at an unprecedented speed, and wind power has become an important field of energy development. The construction of wind energy professional observation network is the basis of wind energy resources investigation. The SmartSolo MS8009 wind energy gradient automatic observation system will be used to observe the changes of wind energy resources for a long time, and obtain accurate and reliable scientific data within a certain time and space range to carry out detailed survey and evaluation of wind energy resources in China.

SmartSolo MS8009 wind energy gradient automatic observation system is a standard meteorological environment monitoring station designed and produced according to the meteorological observation standards of International Meteorological Organization (WMO) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). It is a system specially developed for site selection and long-term monitoring of various wind power generation sites.The system consists of wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, rainfall and other meteorological parameters. It provides accurate, stable and reliable data for wind energy resources survey.


Product features

Real time data monitoring: it can collect and analyze a variety of meteorological data, and can match the collected data such as environmental temperature, environmental humidity, wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric pressure and other data with temporal and spatial information.
