As part of the campaign, ZX Measurement Services deployed a ZX 300 wind Lidar to provide precise wind data for correlation with acoustic measurements, enabling a more detailed and accurate noise impact assessment. Noise monitoring is a critical tool for risk management, planning, and community engagement, ensuring wind farms are developed responsibly, sustainably, and in compliance with all applicable standards.
At the heart of the campaign is the ZX 300 wind Lidar, renowned for its industry-leading accuracy in wind measurement. By capturing data at hub height, the ZX 300 helps improve the precision and efficiency of environmental impact assessments for proposed wind farms.
All Lidar data is accessible via the ZX Data Portal, a secure cloud-based platform offering near-real-time access to wind data. The portal gives Muirhall Energy a unified view of all their measurement data, empowering their team to make informed decisions. Available insights include system uptime, data availability, wind speed, wind direction, wind roses, wind speed profiles and distribution, turbulence, and environmental conditions.
"With our integrated approach — combining the latest Lidar technology with instant data access via our portal — clients like Muirhall Energy can gain actionable insights efficiently and reliably.” said Joanna Cadman-Goodwin, Commercial Manager at ZX Measurement Services. “This deployment showcases our integrated approach to supporting renewable energy development across Europe.”
