Dulas are no strangers to evolution, particularly when it comes to wind measurement! We remember when 10m anemometer masts were the norm, but they have evolved into masts which are more than ten times taller, and most recently we have seen the adoption of LiDAR into the industry. Continuing this tradition, we recently undertook some due diligence on our methods and completed a review of our approach to wind measurement to check that it still conforms to best practice. To ensure that we received an independent ‘scorecard’, we engaged the services of one of the world’s leading certification bodies and one of the biggest names in wind, Det Norske Veritas (DNV). DNV delivers world-renowned testing, certification and technological advisory services in the renewable energy arena – they design new standards, rather just following them. We’re delighted to report that we passed their review with flying colours. **Meticulous attention to detail** We’ve always made it a priority to stay abreast of recommended changes in best practice guidance in wind measurement – our tubular masts have undergone several design evolutions over the years in order to ensure that every deployment meets that guidance. Installing wind measurement equipment requires attention to every detail, as data must be captured consistently and reliably over a period of time – the type of instruments that are deployed, their orientation in relation to the tower, position, height and arrangement of other key equipment. **Delivering maximum value** “We are delighted with this endorsement of our working practices – we wanted to put ourselves through a rigorous review and knew that, as DNV are at the cutting edge of wind measurement standards, they would do just this. This gives our clients continued confidence that we are extremely diligent about our wind measurement campaigns and we’re happy in the knowledge that we are delivering maximum value to all our stakeholders.” **Rachel Munday – Head of Wind Monitoring at Dulas** By [Annika Faircloth](https://dulas.org.uk/author/dulasannika/) Published On: October 24, 2022 Share: [https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F&t=Share%3A](https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F&t=Share%3A) [https://x.com/intent/post?text=Share%3A&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F](https://x.com/intent/post?text=Share%3A&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F) [https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F&title=Share%3A&summary=It%20is%20a%20feature%20of%20the%20renewable%20energy%20industry%20that%2C%20in%20the%20drive%20for%20improvement%2C%20the%20accepted%20methods%20of%20working%20are%20constantly%20evolving%20and%20the%20concept%20of%20what%20constitutes%20%E2%80%98best%20practice%E2%80%99%20is%20rarely%20static.%0D%0A%0D%0ADulas%20are%20no%20strangers%20to%20evolution%2C%20particularly%20when%20it%20comes%20to%20wind%20measurement%21%20We%20remember%20when%2010m%20anemometer%20masts%20were%20the%20norm%2C](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F&title=Share%3A&summary=It%20is%20a%20feature%20of%20the%20renewable%20energy%20industry%20that%2C%20in%20the%20drive%20for%20improvement%2C%20the%20accepted%20methods%20of%20working%20are%20constantly%20evolving%20and%20the%20concept%20of%20what%20constitutes%20%E2%80%98best%20practice%E2%80%99%20is%20rarely%20static.%0D%0A%0D%0ADulas%20are%20no%20strangers%20to%20evolution%2C%20particularly%20when%20it%20comes%20to%20wind%20measurement%21%20We%20remember%20when%2010m%20anemometer%20masts%20were%20the%20norm%2C) [https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F) [mailto:?subject=Share%3A&body=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F](mailto:?subject=Share%3A&body=https%3A%2F%2Fdulas.org.uk%2Fdulas-passes-dnv-review-of-wind-monitoring-practices-with-flying-colours%2F) Engineered for the long term Engineered for the long term [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/engineered-for-the-long-term/) Cooling the world’s crisis zones: A record start to 2026 Cooling the world’s crisis zones: A record start to 2026 [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/cooling-the-worlds-crisis-zones-a-record-start-to-2026/) Powering progress: Looking back on a remarkable year at Dulas Powering progress: Looking back on a remarkable year at Dulas [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/powering-progress-looking-back-on-a-remarkable-year-at-dulas/) Reflections from the first major trade mission to India Reflections from the first major trade mission to India [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/reflections-from-the-first-major-trade-mission-to-india/) Dulas joins Prime Minister and business leaders on first major trade mission to India Dulas joins Prime Minister and business leaders on first major trade mission to India [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/dulas-joins-prime-minister-and-business-leaders-on-first-major-trade-mission-to-india/) Dulas and the Sustainable Development Goals Dulas and the Sustainable Development Goals [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/dulas-and-the-sustainable-development-goals/) Soaring to new heights with our tilt-up masts Soaring to new heights with our tilt-up masts [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/soaring-to-new-heights-with-our-tilt-up-masts/) Innovative Welsh Exporter Puts Britain at the Forefront of Global Immunisation Efforts Innovative Welsh Exporter Puts Britain at the Forefront of Global Immunisation Efforts [Read more](https://dulas.org.uk/innovative-welsh-exporter-puts-britain-at-the-forefront-of-global-immunisation-efforts/) Have you seen our new look?
