WIND AND SOLAR RESOURCE assessment campaigns
Precise and comprehensive resource measurement is fundamental to developing successful wind and solar energy projects. Bureau Veritas' expert wind and solar resource measurement capabilities include comprehensive campaign design, installation, and resource measurement management.
A successful measurement campaign must consider equipment location, configuration, installation, and provide continuous management. The advantage of using our experience is the quality of the program. We offer advanced automation processes, high-quality data collection, efficient interim analysis, quick issue resolution, and an extensive network of reliable solution partners.
The Bureau Veritas approach combines automated data collection, expert human analysis, rapid intervention for data anomalies, maintaining high data acquisition rates (90%+), and minimizing data uncertainty. As the measurement campaign progresses, our analysts provide increasingly refined insights, ultimately reducing downstream analysis costs and supporting critical project decision-making.
