Vaisala WindCube vertical profiler
The world’s leading vertical profiler
Remote sensing devices are lightweight and easily transportable, they do not require planning permission and can be applied both offshore and onshore.
The Vaisala WindCube is a global benchmark for ground-based, vertical wind profiling. Capable of measuring at 20 heights simultaneously, and accurate across a range of heights up to 300m, the WindCube is recognised around the globe for reliable laser wind measurement, with thousands of units deployed over more than 20 years. The WindCube is accepted onshore and offshore by all international standards and guidelines.
Our teams offer end-to-end deployment services for the WindCube. These include a range of bespoke remote power systems that are customised to each deployment location, and include integrated telecoms, fuel systems and data loggers. All our systems can be maintained, refuelled, and operated by Dulas on a turnkey basis, or according our clients’ customised requirements.
Features and benefits
Features and benefits
The industry-standard vertical profiling LiDAR for wind energy applications. Its highly accurate, rigorously validated data aids in wind farm development and operations, both offshore and onshore.
WindCube provides accurate wind measurement up to 300 meters over 20 simultaneously measured heights. The result is bankable data with a more complete view of the wind profile – both of which help you secure funding, reduce uncertainties and the cost of equity, and minimise risk.
Technical specifications
Technical specifications
WindCube data has been validated by hundreds of independent studies and is accepted by all international standards and guidelines. On complex terrain, it uses FCR – also validated by formal studies.
WindCube is IEC-compliant for contractual performance testing, and it is well-suited for continuous wind monitoring, power performance verification, grid-loss compensation, and more.
WindCube units are simple and fast to deploy, with few, if any, permitting or regulatory challenges. The system can stand alone or be co-located with a met mast.
