Unique requirements exist for lidar systems for wind turbine control applications. Lidars must be reliable, achieve high availability, and provide useful measurements for control, all
Since 2012 the 12 countries and around 300 participants in IEA Wind Task 32 from industry and academia have been working on getting lidar into
Lidar-Assisted Control (LAC) promises to reduce loads on wind turbines and increase energy capture. However, it’s not clear how to carry out a type certification
The goal of this document is to codify existing industry and academic best practices to help ensure that the best quality FLS data are made available for use in the wind energy resource assessment process.
The IEA Wind TCP 2016 Annual Report highlights the activities and accomplishments of the International Energy Agency Wind Technology Collaboration Programme (IEA Wind TCP). This
At DONG Energy, Gentofte, Denmark, 38 participants from 8 countries worked on the questions “How can nacelle lidar systems be calibrated and used for power
At the University of Glasgow, 24 participants from 6 countries worked on defining use cases in wake and complex flow measurements. More details.
Participants worked on the determination of the uncertainty in power performance measurements using lidar systems.
Participants discussed about lidar measurements for wake assessment and comparison with wake models.
We would like to welcome South Korea to IEA Wind Task 32.
