Met Mast powered by CFD Technology, 45-Year Wind Data for WRA

The Challenges

 

  • → I’m comparing sites but my wind data is too coarse to make a confident decision

  • Screening with regional atlases and interpolated grids does not reflect actual site conditions. Every shortlisting decision carries an uncertainty that compounds through WRA, AEP, and financing.
  • → My measurement campaign is running but I have nothing to anchor it to long-term

  • Twelve months of on-site data capture one window of time. Without a robust long-term reference, the MCP correlation is weak, the P90 band widens, and the bankability of the project is exposed.
  • → My AEP figures look solid, but don’t include mesoscale effects adjustments

  • A single mast cannot capture regional pressure gradients or seasonal stability shifts, yet those dynamics shape energy yield across the whole project area.

Validate your site’s wind potential with high-resolution wind data at any location

Our solution

Meteodyn combines global mesoscale reanalysis models with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) downscaling to deliver complete high-resolution wind time series at any point on the globe, before the start of a measurement campaign.

The Met Mast powered by CFD Technology is designed primarily for onshore wind farm development, from early-stage Greenfield prospecting through to pre-construction WRA. It also provides a rigorous wind reference for offshore locations where our dedicated Offshore Met Mast powered by SARWind technology is not available.

 

  • ✓Suitable for all Greenfield projects and prior to measurement campaigns
  • ✓Enables long-term correlations
  • ✓Available as offshore fallback where SARWind data is unavailable
