Measurement of wind turbine power performance with a met mast
For measurements in complex terrain, the met mast is equipped with calibrated anemometers and wind vanes. This is in accordance with the recognized standard IEC 61400-12-1.
Measurement of power performance with LiDAR
Measurement of power performance by LiDAR is not permitted for all sites. But especially in flat terrain it can offer a commercially attractive alternative to measuring with met masts.

Components of wind measurement for Power Performance Measurements
- Data loggers to record and calculate wind data
- Anemometers to measure the wind speed
- Wind vanes to determine the wind direction
- Temperature humidity sensor and air pressure sensor to measure the air density
- Remote sensing systems – LiDAR devices
- Communication systems to transfer measurement data
- Power supply systems
